The unique arrangement marks the first time C-17s have been jointly operated from the same base by the Air Force and the National Guard. The C-17 fleet has amassed nearly one million flying hours -- and in the global war on terrorism, has flown combat missions for nearly 1,600 consecutive days -- with record-setting reliability rates. With a payload of 160,000 pounds, the C-17 can take off from a 7,600-foot airfield, fly 2,400 nautical miles, and land on 3,000-foot dirt runways.BI226257 (vv2p1107)Maximum size:3328px × 4992px (~47 MB)11.0in × 16.6in (300dpi)License type:Rights ManagedKeywords:1990s-airplanes-beaches and coastlines-bodies of water-C-17 Globemaster III-clouds-day-exteriors-flying-full body views-gray color-gray skies-green-ground to air-jets-Kaneohe MCAS-Koolau Mountains-landing-military-military livery-monoplanes-mountains-oceans-photos-right front views-sunshine-transports-viewed from belowRelated Photo/Videos:View All
