Years back I remember an incident when a USAF C5A Galaxy worked it's way through the (civil) ATC system (including ours) incorrectly indicated as an C141 Starlifter. The result was quite a nasty wake turbulence incident to an aircraft following it on the approach into Frankfurt which had been vectored too close behind.
