Auto Credit Based on Sunnyskies's Lockheed C-5 Galaxy
Added power and fuel for more realistic flight characteristics.

Also, I would have added more weight to the plane but the wheels couldn't take it.
I tripled the engines and nudged them into the original engines. Also, the top speed for the real plane is roughly 500mph but the original plane flew at 200+mph. I tried to match the fuel capacity for the actual plane but the wheels couldn't bear the weight. The braking was too strong for realism so I decreased the forward traction.
What is the exact power multiplication you used on the engines?
Also, C-5 empty weight is 380,000 lbs, and fuel capacity is 332,500 lbs.
Also, what did you judge "realistic" flight characteristics by?
hi WLC
mouse!!! do the work yourself!
