    A U.S. Air Force C-17 Globemaster III military transport aircraft, tail number 8191, assigned to AMC Charleston, is taxiing or landing on a runway. A large dust cloud is being kicked up behind the aircraft, likely from jet blast on an unpaved or semi-prepared surface. The setting appears to be a forward or austere airfield surrounded by pine forest under overcast skies.
