Historical Note Cont'd:         The C-20 is a twin-engine, turbofan aircraft for special air and operational support airlift missions.  It was produced by Gulfstream Aerospace.

In June 1983, the C-20A/B, military versions of the Gulfstreams III, was chosen as the replacement for the C-140B Jetstar.  C-20H was deployed in 1992.  There were three A models delivered to the 89th Airlift Wing under a cost-saving accelerated purchase plan.  Upon the delivery of the C-20B's, Andrews transferred the three C-20As to Ramstein Air Base and all C-140B's at both locations were phased out of the U.S. Air Force inventory.  In 1990, Gulfstream CEO Allen E.Paulson and a Gulfstream flight crew set 35 international records for around-the-world flight in a Gulfstream IV.  In 1992, the C-20H Gulfstream IV which was their latest model, was delivered to Andrews Air Force Base.  In 2002, the C-20A was decommissioned and two C-20Hs were transferred to Ramstein.

The C-20H incorporates two Rolls-Royce Tay Mark 611-8 turbofan engines.  It has a maximum speed of 576 mph and has a range of 4,250 miles.  It has a crew of five including pilot, co-pilot, flight engineer, communication system operator and flight attendant.

There are two C-20Hs in active service but it was no longer in production as of September 2003.
