Caught this C-17 at CLT yesterday. Anyone know who it belongs to or what it was doing there?

Great pictures. It's so amazing un-aerodynamic and yet it gets the job done.

Here are some good Air Force bomber plane satellite images:

A military pilot called for a priority landing because his single-engine jet fighter was running "a bit peaked." Air Traffic Control told the fighter pilot that he was number two, behind a B-52 that had one engine shut down. "Ah," the fighter pilot remarked, "The dreaded seven-engine approach."

When did you take it? I imagine is was one of the leased A340s that was flying Norwegian Air routes whilst they had B787 troubles (that they may still have). I think BKK and maybe FLL were two of the routes.
