I was driving near the airport today around 1:15 pm and saw a large cargo plane on final approach Runway 25L. At first I thought it was a C-5 Galaxy so I went a little out of my way to get a closer look. Turns out it was a Mississippi ANG C-17 Tail No. 33119. Parked next to it near the JANET terminal was a fleet of Navy T-44 trainers -I counted 5. Then on my way home I drove by again and a Canadian C-130 was parked next to all of them. The Canadian plane was in a low visibility paint job and I could barely make out the Maple Leaf Flag on the tail, let alone any numbers. Busy Sunday at KLAS :-)
