New C-17A on the Long Beach flight ramp

C-17A (P-222) 10-0222 "Charleston" AFB, is the latest a/c on the flight ramp at Long Beach Airport (LGB/KLGB). The next C-17A to exit the production building will be the last C-17A destined for the USAF. The aircraft pictured above originaly would have been the last aircraft but P-223 was orderd to replace the C-17A lost at Elmendorf AFB in Anchorage, Alaska a couple years ago.
