you shouldn't land on Tatooine, it's a hostile planet. Is that Luke Skywalker in the last part? Where are all the sand people?

What a dirty runway..
-
The C17 designed with foward flap and very slow stalled speed. The turbofan engines's exhaust help generate additional lift when the trailing flap in landing position, therefore, more power generate more lift. As the wheel touched the run way, pilot engage the reverse thrust and brakes.

definintely no need approach chart or Landing minimum, VFR approach :D

@JAMESPILOT17 The throttle you hear is from the reverse thrust being applied.

@svtcobra281 what airport mate
-
the flight was smooth and once we get on the runway we hit turbulance?
thank you guys for all you do to help our country cause id like to see a delta flight crew land on dirt while having guys around the country that want to shoot you down
-
Was the alarm at the end to let the flight attendants know to prepare for arrival?
-
is this the raf or usaf?
-
@JAMESPILOT17 Yes svtcobra is right. the power up before landing is used to flare the plane instead of using the stick.

C-17 Isn't this platform awesome. If there are any aerodynamics dudes on here, can you explain to me why power is increased (Nr>) on landing, obviously this is to do with the flight dynamics of the Wing? An Answer would be great help... Thanks inadvanced. (And no it isn;t reverse thrust... )

@JAMESPILOT17 basically yes the flap system causes the C-17 to be on the "back side" of the power curve on landing. The Angle of Attack is held constant and power is added to flare the jet on landing.
