Boeing 747-400 (N936CA)

National Cargo's N936CA, a Boeing 744 named "Lori" and wearing National's "30 Glorious Years ..." sticker, is just reaching Vr speed as it accelerates down 17L to take off for a flight to Charleston Air Force Base/International Airport (KCHS).

A couple of hours earlier, N936CA, operating as CMB 451 (US Transportation Command Flt 451), had arrived from Nadi, Fiji (NAN/KFFN). Shortly before N936CA had landed at Reno, an OAE B762 had landed at RNO after a flight from Fiji (NAN) with an intermediate stop at Honolulu (PHNL). Since both this National and the Omni Air had originated their flights from Fiji, it would seem that both were involved in the same transport assignment.
