3D printed parts for the C-5M deliver new capabilities

A crew of engineering support staff from the C-5 System Program Office, Robins Air Force Base, Georgia, prepare the wing surface of a C-5M Super Galaxy prior to maintenance, at Travis AFB, California, Jan. 31, 2023. Airmen from the 60th Maintenance Squadron and the 349th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron installed 3D printed support blocks and wedge spacers. These internal support structures provide the underlying shape of the C-5 upper hump aerodynamic panel over the wing splice. (U.S. Air Force photo by Lan Kim)
