I saw a C5 Galaxy land today...

It's nice!!! And big.... I think it was from the U.S. airforce. Sometimes I also see some C-130's and some F-16's. There's a small U.S. airforce base on Curacao 75 km away. But that's about it for the military airplanes here on Aruba. As for U.S. government, Donald Rumsfeld was here with a U.S. government airplane about three monts ago.

And I also see the Orion very often (those are from the Dutch marines).

Perhaps they flew saddam to Aruba

Don't they use the Dutch Orion's for drugs smuglers?

You are correct, as the USAF is the only owner/flier of the Lockheed C-5 Galaxy....

Nope, for transporting marine troops and equipment.

Although they did find a lieutentant (or sergeant major?) smuggling drugs on board an Orion from Curacao to The Netherlands.
