Boeing C-17 Globemaster in MSFS

[@tylerthomastt]

One thing that's insane about this plane and the larger C-5 is that they have so much power that even fully loaded they can go almost vertical, and can take off in such a short amount of time for being a large plane

[@KeyboardWarrior101st]

One of the craziest things I ever felt was a combat take off in a C-17.

[@gianniferrara6610]

bigger wings, bigger engines, more thrust, more lift, faster takeoff

[@denmister100]

@@KeyboardWarrior101st i think the landing in to Kandahar was more scary than the combat takeoff 😅

[@KeyboardWarrior101st]

@@denmister100 Yeah I can understand that for sure but I hate flying so the closer I am to landing the happier I am. I remember the flight crew briefed us on the landing so we didn't think we were crashing and thank God they did lol.

[@thegeekgaming6037]

That’s how the game looks

[@steamfan4014]

I've gotten to fly in one of these with my ROTC unit at March Air Reserve Base and the sounds used for this model are pretty good. The cockpit is pretty good too. I could be wrong, but I think each engine on the C-17 produces 44,000 pounds of thrust. It also has the capability to takeoff and land on a, and I could be wrong about this too since it's been a little while since I was last with a C-17, a 3,000 foot runway. My dad used to be a Loadmaster for the C-17 before he retired from 22 years in the Air Force, and he once told me that the Globemaster can carry one M1 Abrams tank and a little weapons trailer. They used to show off the C-17 's abilities during airshows until one crashed, but it was so awesome watching them do demos during airshows. If I ever join the military, I would want to be a pilot for the C-17 Globemaster

[@SanDiegoKid]

Love to see Miramar. I grew up right next to that base and both of my Grandpas were stationed there back when it was a Naval Air Station.

[@SanDiegoKid]

Not to mention the Miramar Air Show and the Blue Angels. A must see if you visit San Diego in the Fall.

[@raginOKCTHUNDER]

I work on these here at the training base in Altus, OK. This sim looks absolutely fantastic!!!

[@JerodM]

There was a period of time where I worked at Altus AFB as a contractor cleaning out the hangars. (Bird poop) and even some construction along the runway. Watching these planes do touch and go’s is awesome.

[@raginOKCTHUNDER]

@@JerodM Luckily there’s nets up in the rafters of all the hangars now so the birds aren’t as bad.

[@JerodM]

@@raginOKCTHUNDER yes the owls would dispense the remains of mice and other critters. It wasn’t that bad to clean if you just accepted what it was you were doing and the end result would be clean beautiful floors. But it took the whole day to do all of the hangars

[@subjectc7505]

For someone who had to crouch in the cockpit of the C-17. it's pretty accurate so far

[@C-M-E]

I love it when these things fly over the the house. Definitely a signature sound. I was telling my daughters about them the other day where you hear them in the distance, kind of a warbling exhaust noise that begins to sound like you imagine a UFO would, and only gets louder til it shakes your bones.

[@RedBud315]

I worked for the telephone company at McDonnell Douglas in Long Beach where the C-17 was developed. I remember going into the hanger where they did testing on the wings and they snapped them. They had hydraulics attached at many points on the wing and pulled them upwards to simulate the weight that would be on them. They had to completely redesign them to fix that issue. We had a microwave shot at the top of that hangar building and you don't realize how high that tail is until you are above it over 50ft on the stair case just to the side of the aircraft. On one of the earliest test flight they did a 380K lbs. takeoff in 1200 feet. That's less than a quarter mile folks. It's a great aircraft but, I think it must have been budget overrun that ultimately killed it.

[@keithfreitas2983]

I was there as one of the FAA Aircraft Dispatchers Flight Testest Production. Office was in Bldg 15 on the flight Ramp.

[@oldandconfusedinflorida1802]

Saw one of these fly over me in Clearwater when it left the Air show at McDill in Tampa. Pretty cool model

Nice. I've seen 3121 many times. It's been a longtime resident at ED attached to the 418th FLTS. I believe it's fully outfitted with sensors along the surfaces. In fact, numerous years ago I watched them do test landings on the lake-bed with it, which basically creates a cloud you can see for miles. The wind out there is pretty much standard. That's to say... It really sucks. The entire valley gets that.
