First listen to SSgt Victoria Staley of the 732nd AS explains the general mission of the C-17 and then watch a demonstration of the short field and slow speed handling of the jet. By the way, check out the crew member taking a picture of the crowd at the 4:00 mark.

  • Was this at the May McGuire AFB Air Show? Cuz I worked on that.

  • Actually this was from Dover AFB in 2006. I do have footage from this year's McGuire show...maybe you're in it!

  • It's a shame you didn't catch that beauty backing up instead of that you had to close up the engines.

  • I was looking for the intake tornadoes that form when its in reverse. Demar727 got a great photo of one...he may be able to send you a copy.

  • The C-17. It kicks the shit out of a C-5.

  • I hope a B-52 is better at dropping bombs. The C-17 was never designed to drop bombs. Its a cargo plane.

  • YouTube 911GATE.

  • Do these people have any idea what they are participating in? Like global war....Afghanistan being primary target right now. People, stop glorifying the military!! Notice how it is described so innocently, like it was just a harmless transport plane.

  • what is biggger a c17 or c130

  • @peepeevagi Yeah, given the FRED's old age. The last FREDs were built in the late '80s, and although the B models have been modernized, they are getting more expensive to maintain. Buying more C-17s is a good idea.
