    Two C-17 Globermaster III's wait on the runway, Nov. 17, for their next mission. C-17's are primarily used to transport cargo and troops, and can carry a maximum of 170,900 pounds, and can land on runways as short as 3,500 feet, which is crucial to resupplying Afghanistan operations from the air or on the ground in remote areas.
