What about the B-52's?
They are a LOT older than the C-141's and will be
flying till at least 2040...

I HATE to see our (yours and mine) tax $$ wasted!
Forget the urban myth of the $500 hammer....
I spoke to the test Engineers at Aberdeen when they
were evaluating the Stweart and Stephenson trucks
and asked specifically if they had problems with the
seals in the axles (tires run 105 psi) and the Engineer
told me they had lots of problem with the eval vehicles.
Now the M35A3's are going to have this expensive
(not need in MHO) CTIS thrown away?
