Oh yeah, that's what I'm talking about!!  That color scheme looks stunning on that C-17.  I think this is the second one that's going to the Qatar Emiri Air Force, as well as the first C-17 to wear an airline livery.  Great job Robert!  <thumbsup>

Yep, very cool ;)

You guys are so lucky, I so miss getting down to LGB to see what C-17's are about...gutted about missing those new deliveries, damn! Gonna miss so much before I can get there again in December Doh!!  Here's my last one taken way back in April a few days before I did some shooting at the Indycar race before returning to a rainy England!!

An old work partner of my pops from the C-17 plant said the Qatar C-17 should have it's first flight on the 17th. But it's not a definite date as it was first supposed to fly on the 13th. So we shall see. I don't think I will make it, but thought I would share.

That should be quite a sight...I'd love to see that Qatar C-17 get airborne.  What would be even better if it took off later in the afternoon when it bathes in the golden sunset light  8)

Here are some small aircraft I caught with the crew this morning/afternoon alongside with the VMA-232 'Red Devils' F-18s.  Looks like the student pilot in the Beechcraft 'Duchess' had his door open for whatever reason.  
Probably the most pristine 737 I have seen, I mean...look at the mirror finish on the exhaust cones!
I caught Fernando's head in the first shot  <laughing>
