I spent the day in Dover, Delaware today to do some work for my dad and also to hit up the AMC Museum at Dover AFB. Off and on rain and a constant overcast made it challenging against mostly-grey aircraft. Did my best though. No C-5/C-17 movements, unfortunately. I also stopped at PHL on the way home.

Let's start off with a fine pair of Starlifters.

C-9

There were a total of four Kalitta Falcon 20's on the ramp, unfortunately tasked with bringing a group of fallen soldiers to their final resting places. :(

C-124

The "Weenie Wagon" :)

More in part two.

Unfortunately that very Falcon (N227CK) flew into Eglin AFB yesterday to bring a fallen soldier home.

It's a shame you had the bad weather.  I will be making trip down soon.  Nice shots considering the conditions.

Dover is where they bring Our Fallen Heros before they are taken to their homes.  :(
