Morning Flyboy! Drop into the Charleston Airport and look across the field and see some of the prettiest Air Force Planes around and the biggest! I think they are called C17's, One just got back from Iran carring rescue personnel. The pilot said that they started operating (the docs) as soon as they hit the ground!

They have carried a lot of our equipment and troops to Iraq and Afghanistan also.

Hi Dixie. I have been inside one of these beauties. Very impressive indeed.
