c-17 hours

If we flew our C-17s at 5000hrs a year they would last..uummm 6 years!!

It could never happen though. Untill the movers get kit that brings them into the 20th centry and they stop thinking AT revolves around just the C-130, we will be stuck with load times 2 1/2 times the international standard of 90 mins for a lot longer.

you cant blame the guys on the ground, its their managment that just havent put up a decent case for proper kit!
