C-17 Globemaster III Demo

The C-17 Globemaster III is the newest, most flexible cargo aircraft to enter the airlift force. The C-17 can take off and land on runways as short as 3,500 feet and only 90 feet wide. Even on such narrow runways, the massive 500,000 pound jet can turn around using a three-point star turn and its backing capability.  During a C-17 full capabilities demonstration its agility and ability to maneuver defies imagination and its ability to stop in less than 2,500 feet during a combat landing simulation is equally as impressive.
