Wing bending relief

KenV-'There are four wing tanks on the C-17. And they feed fuel to their associated engines equally. The outer tanks are not kept full for wing bending relief.'

I beg to differ Ken, the outboard tanks on the C-17 are kept full until the inboards reach the same level then they all come down together.
