The C-5B has provided transportation service for the Navy Seals for many years, until the C-17 took over this task. The Galaxy is extremely suitable for high speed flight at low altitude. It can go for 400kn at sea level, and the Active Load Distribution System enables the wings to take higher g-loads as normal. It may be assumed that some units have been equipped with whatever was helpful on special warefare missions. This one has a Terrain Contour Flight Radar and the respective AP function to fly at 100ft with mach 0.6+. It also has a night vision camera mounted above the artificial horizon.

Mission >Get Hugo!<

A first comment of a Venezuelean XP user living in Caracas: "Do you know that this is a very possible real mission? ATREVETE!!!! (That's Manuel Rosales' campaign motto) ... We all wish that something like this will happen."

The package comes with plans, maps and sattelite photos to conduct the mission >Get Hugo!<. This is a fictional mission within a real and actual scenario. Your first flight goes from Travis AFB to Dover AFB to pick up your passengers and cargo for the mission. Or you may jump right into the action: It is the 3rd December 2006, the day of elections in Venezuela. President Hugo Chavéz in fact has lost, but he is falsifying the results and not ready to hand over the political power to the real winner, Manuel Rosales. You have to dispatch 2 teams of Navy Seals together with heavy equipment in the center of the capital of a country, which is not totally unaware of such an interference, in order to support domestic forces in getting rid of a dictator, who is about to lead his nation back into the days of cold war, into communism, support of terrorism and all this mess we thought it would vanish from our planet after the fall of the iron curton. - Your mission is not an easy task. It is up to you to select more or less dangerous opponents in XP, which might shoot out your engines. But the flight is hairy enough, even with no enemy contact. You have to maneuvre an overloaded Zeppelin through the tropical mountain forests at 740km/h, no F-16. Your only chance to succeed is to dash a few feet above the trees and the rocks of the coastal Cordilleras of Venezuela in total darkness.

The package contains the following:

• The aircraft C-5B Special Warfare for XP 8.50

• The mission orders (a PDF document of 8 pages)

• 6 flight plans as PDF docs and as FMS files which can be loaded into the FMS of your C-5B.

• 15 flight maps illustrating those flight plans, including details for approach and departure.

• 5 sattelite photos of the target area

A dedicated night panel is to come. Promised!

This edition of the C-5B is NOT available for XP 8.40!
