This C-17 was in town as support aircraft for a visit by the Vice President on 9/12/23.
Interesting tidbit - The C-17 can take off and land on runways as short as 3,500 feet (1,064 meters) and only 90 feet wide (27.4 meters). Even on such narrow runways, the C-17 can turn around using a three-point star turn and its backing capability.
