Ex Talisman Saber 2017 - United States Air Force (USAF) Boeing C-17A Globemaster III 05-5153 Touches Down at Rockhampton Airport

After one USAF Globemaster departed (see Blog post below) then late on Friday 21 July, another United States Air Force (USAF) Boeing C-17A Globemaster III wearing the serial 05-5153 was spotted arriving into Rockhampton Airport from parts unknown as "Trek 40".


The massive transport aircraft was parked on Gate 6 on the Southern end of the Rockhampton Airport parking apron where it was promptly unloaded and was prepared to spend the night.










The Globemaster is expected to depart sometime on Saturday 22 July.

Sincere thanks local plane spotters Kayanne H and Daniel B for taking the time to capture and send through these great photos!
