September 15th, the 20th Anniversary of the first flight of C-17 T-1 (70025).

Later this year, the airframe will be decommissioned.

A 20 year old airframe, with thousands of test hours on it. Surprised it lasted that long really.

Looks like Edwards is getting a new C-17. There is a fresh out of the paint booth C-17 with a Edwards tail on the ramp at Long Beach.

Drove by, and he was starting to taxi. Pure blind luck. Hope they paint it in NASA colors when they get it.
