Knock at least an hour off that in a 74. It wasn't made to be aerodynamyic. Just deliver lots of stuff after burning lots of gas. But at least its still younger than me, my kids, and most playboy models. Can't say that about much of the current air force equipment.

Knock at least an hour off that in a 74.7+ hours later we're getting in the van to ride over to customs in Singapore and here comes that same C-17 taxiing up to the ramp!
