BOEING C-17
GLOBEMASTER III
![]()
In the 1970's the USAF held a contest for a replacement for the
C-130, and McDonnell-Douglas produced in response the YC-15
aircraft. However the contest was cancelled and no production
was started.
In the 1980's the USAF realised that the C-141 fleet was ageing and
encountering structural problems. McDonnell-Douglas developed
the C-17 from the earlier and smaller YC-15 as a replacement for
the C-141 and also to offload the C-5 fleet.
The aircraft first flew in 1991 and entered service in 1995. As well
as the USAF the aircraft is in service with the RAF and the RAAF,
with other countries including Canada having either ordered the
aircraft or are considering it.
This CD contains the USAF flight manual for the Boeing C-17.
The CD has been produced from the original flight manual and
retains any colour pages.
