    Per the South Bay Historical Society timeline, a C-5 contract commenced at Foley in 1986. This series has been tagged Foley based on that timeline.

    General Electric TF39 high-bypass turbofan (TF-39-GE-1C) in its cowling. The TF39 was unique in having a "T-Stage" fan and "snubbered" first stage fan blades. It was also unique in that it only powered the Lockheed C-5 Galaxy (although it did provide the basis for the commercial GE CF6 high-bypass turbofan). Given the 1985 timeframe, it is almost certain that this engine was destined for a then-new production C-5B Galaxy, after C-5 production was restarted during the Reagan Administration.

    C-5B tail number AF83-1285. This airplane is the first C-5B, and was the 82nd C-5 built. For most of it's flight history it has been based with the 436 AW at Dover AFB.
