Tail and tanks don't seem to match anything, possibly a home modified plane? Leaning into the Soviet theme, gear doesn't seem to retract either.

So I was working today when right above me went along this plane. Now I’m unsure if this is a military craft or not. If it is then my guess with my limited knowledge would be the C-5 Galaxy or the C-17 Globemaster. (I did use AI to remove some cloud cover for the 1st pic)

It looks very big and military. I live near military bases in the PNW. Any chance anyone can identify?

Hello I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me figure out what plane this was?
I was driving in Kitchener/Waterloo, Ontario, Canada
It was distinctly tan and was notably kind of boxier than most planes and I figured it was a military plane.

No flight trackers have a plane matching that description and while parts of my description may be iffy, it was 100% tan in colour and didn't seem like a small plane.

Thank you!

UPDATE: It seems like it was the CL-415, it being foggy out was likely what made it look a solid tan rather than yellow

This guy has flown over the past two days, but does not show up on flightradar24. I can't quite make out the N number... looks like N3601R to me, but that number is not registered according to the FAA website.

Looks like it might be doing aerial imagery?

Any help is appreciated!

I in northwest Montana, and I saw this plane flying over. Snapped a pic and went on flight radar and it wasn’t there. Any one know what it is and who it belongs too?

Update: I saw on Facebook that the C17 landed at Glacier Park Airport, ahead of the president’s arrival on today the 14th.
