The C-17 Globemaster has
fulfilled its role as a cargo transport plane exceptionally well. Over
1 million operational hours have been toiled by the C-17 supporting
military operations and humanitarian missions. This was the first year
for the C-17 at Chino and
we were treated to a demonstration of the short take off and landing
capability as well as the incredible manueverability of this aircraft.
This C-17 is based at March ARB in California with the 452nd Air
Mobility Wing.
