Being a retired C-17 crew dog, that brings a tear to my eye. Great shot!

Looking at that photo, the diameter of the C17 engines seem to be almost as big as the diameter of the fuselage of the C47. That C17 is one big beast.

They would have crapped themselves.

Nice shot. I love the bohemoth C-17.
