C-141 Related Web Links

This page contains links to other web sites that you might find interesting. They are presented in no particular order, so please don't write and ask me why your site is not at the top of the list!!

Some of these sites may be commercial in nature (e.g., trying to sell you something). These have paid no fee to C141Heaven for inclusion here and are listed only because you might find them interesting.

If you know of other links that folks might be interested in seeing here, please let me know via email

Note: Since 9/11 the US Govt has stupidly removed a lot of links to non-classified information about things such as the C-141. For example, they used to have a very complete inventory of what was at Davis-Monthan on the DM web site. It's totally gone now, under the guise of 'national security'. The paranoid folks in HSA have convinced the military (it probably wasn't too hard to do) that Osama could use this information somehow, and as a result, a lot of information is no longer available on the web,and what is there tends to disappear as more paranoid government web-masters review their content. The point is, any links below may break at any time. If you find broken links please let me know. I will do my best to resurrect them.

There's a GREAT site called the Memory hole, which is dedicated to keeping available via the web what the government doesn't want you to know.

GI Memories

This site has lots of links to others that are devoted to anything military, including lots of aircraft specific sites and tons of others maintained by ex-military personnel. Makes for some interesting browsing!

JetPhotos.net

This site has thousands of photos of jets. They are mostly commerical airliners, but there can be a few nice military finds here and there. If you use the search feature you can locate over 100 photos of C141's. Just search for '141' only in the aircraft type.

What's really amazing is the fantastic quality of the photos. There are some truly spectacular shots and it's well worth the time to visit this site.

USAF Aviation Site

This is an interesting site based in Europe. Spotters (a popular European passtime, it seems) track movements of aircraft from a few bases and report them to the site. You can then see when the A/C arrived or departed. You can see a number of C-141 movements in their logs, primarily from Wright Patterson doing med-evac flights from W's war. There are spotters at Ramstein and Andrews (where there are hospitals) and Dover (where the east coast morgue is) when I last checked. The data may not be 100% complete but still very interesting.

The Berlin Airlift Historical Foundation
is dedicated to preserving the memory and legacy of one of the greatest humanitarian/aviation events in history.
