"Spirit of Los Angeles" is now much closer to its namesake since its transfer from Charleston to March ARB. Although it does seem to need one of those "Holywood" makeovers!
I liked this perspective of this Globemaster III as she trundled out to the piano keys on the RIAT Departures Day. Good to see a West Coast based example from Travis AFB.
This C-17A Globemaster III from 436thAW at Dover AFB is seen here arriving at Volkel. It is slowing down - with thrust-reversers and spoilers deployed - on rwy24.
Here the loadmasters aboard A41-208 guide the pilots while backtracking along runway 33. Mt Mitchell can be seen in the background. Thank you to the RAAF, Camp Quality and the Starlight Foundation for their efforts for 'Fun Flight 08'.
Another great surprise for me from Elmendorf AFB in Alaska 176 WG SQ this airplane set 13 payload-to-altituded records Nov 28, 2001 , sorry for the quality the very bad weather in the area.
the first time in sju.
