By Greg Waldron2021-07-27T02:11:00+01:00 Canberra will redefine the mission of its Leonardo C-27J Spartan tactical transports to focus on the humanitarian and disaster relief mission. According to Australia’s Department of Defence, the aircraft’s new role will support the humanitarian mission both in Australia and the surrounding region. Source: Commonwealth of Australia RAAF C-27Js have played a key role during Australian fire outbreaks “The Spartan demonstrated its specific capabilities during the 2019/20 Australian bushfire crisis by safely evacuating 2,400 fire-affected community members and resupplying remote communities that were inaccessible by larger aircraft, which included moving 300,000 kilograms of cargo,” says Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) chief air marshal Mel Hupfeld.

Does a Video Show a C-17 Globemaster Flying Between Buildings?

Origin In late July 2021, a Reddit user posted a video of an extremely large plane weaving between high-rise buildings in Australia. The surreal video captured a lot of attention online, with some commenters noting that the video brought up disturbing memories of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attack in New York City. The video is real. Although it went viral in the summer of 2021, it’s actually from 2018. The plane, a Royal Australian Air Force C-17 Globemaster, flew at an altitude of just 300 feet over Brisbane, a large coastal city in eastern Australia. At the time, the Brisbane Times reported that the flyby was a practice run “for the 21st annual Riverfire on Saturday, which has become Queensland’s largest annual public celebration.”
