This Globemaster started some movement at Pirkkala. It suffered from a flat tire and was stuck at the airport for some days.

The spare tire was delivered by a KC-135 that also broke something and was stuck at Pirkkala for a couple of days. Another Globemaster brought the KC-135 the needed parts. Apparently it broke nothing at Pirkkala.
