Default C-5 crash...Fixable?

Exactly, Lockheed is far from being out of the aircraft business.

A lot of the C5-A's have wing spar problems, been that way for years,
but it still did not hinder their flight worthyness, in regards to
safety. All it did was limit max load capacity they could carry.......

Lockheed got out of the airplane building business, thankfully, so that

That's news to me and the other 50,000+ employees at Lockheed as we
deliver more F-16's, some F/A-22's, and C-130J's every month... :}
