The C-17 Global Workhorse

Keith applies the final detail on his painting "Global Workhorse". The painting depicts a C-17 of the 437th Airlift Wing departing the former MiG base at Tuzla, Bosnia. Keith flew nine of these C-17 missions to Tuzla and Sarajevo in eight days during the build up of US forces in Bosnia in January 1996. The painting was presented by then McDonnell Douglas to the U. S. Air Force Art Collection. The leather covered vertical drawing board emulates an easel while providing close access to the painting and a good surface for the taping of necessary reference material.
