Even if you know nothing about aeronautics, know that in order to get a plane off the ground pilots have to balance airplane weight ratios, plan for refueling for long hauls, adjusting for weather conditions and more.
In this situation, they had a lighter fuel load to accommodate more “cargo” weight.
Please take a moment to appreciate again the skill of the USAF pilots and staff that made this happen.
