Well I am one to laugh at my own mistakes but if you yourselves go to google images and type in C-17 and C-117 it will show the same types of aircraft. Apparently a lot of people out there are mislabeling them.

Im not an idiot so I was wondering what the differences were. Apparently all of these are labeled wrong. I DID google search it. That's why I was asking. I thought maybe there was an engine difference or something. I didn't realize they were two planes from two different era's.
Sheesh
P.S. I believe that last link isn't even a C-17. It's a C-5.
Thanksverymuch
