This is the prototype of the Globemaster III, built by McDonnell Douglas as the YC-17A and intended only developmental test and evaluation with an estimated life span of five years. Having set many airlifter records with the Air Force Flight Test Center at Edwards AFB, it was rebuilt in the 1990s extending its life substantially. After being featured in several major movies, it was ferried to Wright-Patterson for the NMUSAF in April 2012 and is now preserved in the outdoor airpark

This is the prototype C-17 and made her first flight on 15th Sept. 1991 flying from Long Beach to Edwards AFB, CA. After completing the test program for the Globemaster III she then became a testbed for the USAF, NASA and other flight-test agencies, as well as finding time to appear in quite a few blockbuster movies. She was retired at Edwards during 2011 and flown the following year to the National Museum of the USAF for display.
