April 17, 200520 yr I just got a magazine from Lockheed called "Code One." I highly suggest it to anyone who can get their hands on it. The photos are some of the most spectacular pictures I've ever seen of airplanes. Anyways, here's the site Code One

Really nice photography. Sad though, I didn't see any of our birds in there.
April 20, 200520 yr Author I try not to mention Company X around my family or any other Lockheed employees. That being said, Lockheed had a display up comparing the C-17 to the C-5 showing how much more the 5 could carry. I went up to the guy at the display and asked him why the hell they would even try and compare Barney to Fred, and he said that they were basicallly the same thing. I then told him he needed a poster comparing the J to the C-17. The guy laughed and said that they have completely different missions. I remarked "I rest my case" and the guy just ignored me. Oh well, rant switch off.
