Default From CFB Baggotville, Quebec: IMG_0964mod001.jpg (1/1)

From the Boeing web site:
.... the Canadian government's ordered in 2007 four C-17 Globemaster IIIs,
the first two of which already are in service with Canadian Forces.
"A high-wing, 4-engine, T-tailed military-transport aircraft, the
multi-service C-17 can carry large equipment, supplies and troops directly
to small airfields in harsh terrain anywhere in the world day or night.
The massive, sturdy, long-haul aircraft tackles distance, destination and
heavy, oversized payloads in unpredictable conditions. It has delivered
cargo in every worldwide operation since the 1990s."

Nope, I have no idea what it is, except very, very big!


Looks like a USAF C17.
