    I’m a Veteran of the USAF of 27 years and most of those years working on C-141’s & C-5’s. Only a couple of times on the C-17. I have to say Thank You for the hard work and dedication you and your team have put into the making of such an awesome aircraft. I can’t wait to see you fly her and put her through her trials!!! Excellent Job!!!!

    I’ve jumped C-17As many times when I was in the 82nd Airborne, 3-325 AIR. The most comfortable bird to jump from as a paratrooper. C-141B and C-130H were brutal to load up all rigged, especially since we always jumped Mass Attack, Combat Equipment, almost always at night.

    No way. Too much bulk. Who ever did the machining never looked at Space stuff. Too much solid metal. Everything should have holes, triangles or honeycomb cut outs. The struts are available for MTN bikes at third of the weight. Even Ramy was cutting stuff away. Made to support 5 tons. No reason for it.
