You know, when the F-15 or F-22 are that close, you can feel the bow wake from the jets. Jeepers, that must be some huge bow wake on the Caribou from the C-17!

I bet the C-17 guys can call the 'bou pilots "FLAPs"!*

* "FLAP" = derogatory term some snooty military guys use to describe pilots who fly GA aircraft....("F-ing Little Airplane Pilots")
