Gee, this runway sure is short!..........But look how damn wide it is!..................
I used to work for a company that was started by a bunch of retired Lockheed engineers. They had worked on the C5 project. One of those birds was wrecked when the pilot landed on a short private runway that was in line but ten miles from their intended Air Force runway. According to the flight recorder the pilot said, “F@@%, that doesn’t look like 5,000 feet!”
