These are from December 20th, 2007. Fifteen C-17s take to the skies in 3 and 3/4 minutes. Tomorrow they will set a record with 21 C-17s in 5 and 1/4 minutes or one every fifteen seconds.

Geez, I guess there's really no room for error in that flight, huh? That must be one heck of an impressive thing to see.
