Scott AFB Centennial Airshow: C-17 Globemaster III Demonstration

By Carmelo Turdo

The Scott Air Force Base Centennial Airshow featured a variety of military and civilian performers and static display aircraft.  Over the next several posts, The Aero Experience will highlight our coverage of Friday's Military Appreciation Day airshow held before the weekend public open house.  This coverage may not include all of the weekend exhibits, but it gave us some material we released for promotional purposes. In this edition, this C-17 Globemaster III strategic transport crew demonstrates the low-altitude maneuverability and ground handling of this massive jet.
