Can anyone remember the date (month or year ok) that the USAF lost two
C-141's on the same day. I lost a buddy on one of those, and my wife and
I
were trying to remember when it happened. She remember 75-76, and I
remember a few years later. TIA.

Here's a list of all C-141 losses (22 of them).

http://aviation-safety.net/database/...datekey&page=1

It appears the date was 28 Aug 1976. One in UK, one in Greenland.
Interesting that they were sequential tail numbers.

Might want to try: http://aviation-safety.net/database/index.html

And then go to military transports, followed by C-141. When I tried your
link, Ed, I got an error message--it may not be possible to access that
particular database list via external link.
