C-17 transportation plays a key role in an effort to evacuate thousands of people from Kabul, including a record flight carrying more than 800 people.

The United States is seeking to increase the number of flights leaving Afghanistan to evacuate 5,000-9,000 people a day, mobilizing many forces to bring people to and bring the equipment and the supply of supplies to soldiers in Kabul.

The C-17 began to pay attention to the image of many Afghanists who clinged to the Hamid Karzai Hamid International Airport Road in Kabul, in which some people were killed by the plane rolled over, falling from the aircraft

C-17 transportation with REACH 871 has set a record when carrying 823 Afghan citizens leaving Kabul.

It's really hard to believe.

C-17 Globemaster III is a heavy military transport aircraft developed by McDonnell Douglas in the late 1980s aimed at transporting strategies and tactics, allowing to bring American weapons and soldiers to all

This is what we have trained.

The C-17 aircraft is designed to land on a short runway, as well as the battle runways are not pre-prepared.

Even C-17 crews showed an impression with the driver on the REACH 871 when they take off with more than 800 people in the item compartment.

More than 820 Afghan people crowded on US C-17 transport on August 15.

The previous record was 670 people transported on the Filipino evacuation flight from the stormy area.

There are still hundreds of people outside the C-17 and on the runway at the time of Reach 871 to take off, but the group cannot do anything more.

If the C-17 stops, it may be damaged or completely destroyed, no one knows whether people are weapons.

The C-17 crew is trained in danger with hijackers, broke into airplanes or violate airports, but never witnessed the situation like in Kabul.

Rushing in the process of taking off makes them difficult to accurately calculate the mass in the item compartment, thereby unable to determine the essential runway to take off.

Two other factors make REACH 871's flight even more dangerous.

Overcoming all this challenge, the C-17 team still has another issue, which is only a toilet while carrying hundreds of people.

When the US Air Force seeks aerial bridge forces with Afghanistan, voluntary flight number is also higher than aircraft available.
