The rear wheel assembly of a C-5M Super Galaxy aircraft is serviced inside a hangar, March 13, 2019 at Travis Air Force Base, California. The C-5M Super Galaxy’s high flotation main landing gear provides 28 wheels to distribute gross weight on paved or earth surfaces. The rear main landing gear can be made to caster on an angle to make a smaller turning radius, and rotates 90 degrees after takeoff before being retracted.
