06-6167 (cn P-167) This brand new C-17A has just fired up its engines after it dropped into CLE for a visit to NASA. This is one was just delivered to Dover AFB, DE from the Boeing plant in Long Beach, CA. Dover accommodates both an active duty (436th AW) and Air Force Reserve (512th AW) Airlift Wing’s. I’m not sure who the proud owner of this one is but it’s less than a month old as of today (7/24/07). I knew it was a newer model as soon as I saw the LED marker lights on the belly and tail as it landed. The rain showers that just passed made for lousy lighting conditions.

Great shot of a very cool airplane. Looks like it's on taxiway Victor - you must've taken this shot from the 5K hangars??? One of my old haunts.....
