This 27-second video taken in 2003 shows NASA Dryden (now Armstrong) Flight Research Center's C-17 taking off from Palmdale, CA.
NASA Dryden participated with the U.S. Air Force (USAF), other NASA Centers, The Boeing Company, and Pratt & Whitney in the Propulsion Health Management (PHM) portion of the Integrated Vehicle Health Management (IVHM) program. The program used a USAF C-17 transport to enhance aircraft safety by enabling early electronic detection of potential problems with aircraft engines and associated systems.
