What about the C5 Galaxy, when my mom worked at the American airbase (RAF Alconbury) they used to land them there with Nuc's bombs/missiles as it had the longest runway in the area to land them. Used to come once a week. Green Peace always seemed to know when they were coming too.

Guppys are American though aren't they? Airbusses are French and that one is in a foxtrot register too.
