The C-17 by

This is the C-17 arriving at Avalon a few days before the International Airshow in 2007. I happened to be in the area and noticed a bit of a gathering outside the airfield just waiting…… being close to the airshow I figured something was happening, so joined the crowd and waited too. We didn’t have too wait too long before this huge monster appeared in the distance. It was amazing, there was complete silence as it flew low over our heads, then did a big circle and flew over us again before landing. One of the most awesome things I’ve ever seen.
