The 433rd Airlift Wing (Air Force Reserve) is the home the C-5M Super Galaxy at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland, Texas, stationed on the Kelly Field Annex. In addition to our enormous aircraft, we also share the flightline with numerous military and regional aircraft in the area, including many other transient, civilian, and military aircraft as well.
We understand, at times, many communities surrounding the base may see and hear our aircraft due to us performing operational tests, evaluations, and training for our servicemembers. Please keep in mind that it can become very challenging, projecting increases or decreases in air traffic – since these times may vary based on training needs, maintenance schedules, and other factors.
Here at the wing, we strive to be good neighbors to the surrounding communities. At any time you wish to provide information about noise disturbance by one of our C-5M aircraft, please complete this form and send it to 433awpa@us.af.mil.
