Yesterday afternoon while out and about I got a phone call from an office colleague to say an RAAF C17 had just landed at Brisbane airport. Luckily I was only 20 minutes away so I called out there for a while. I was only there for about 45 minutes before it departed again. The C17 lined up at the 01R end and got airborne very quickly, but then it leveled out at about 200 feet I'm guessing and flew the whole length of the runway at that level. I must say it looked really impressive.
