Re the OP. That isn't using 'jetwash'. It's pushing one wingtip against another to flip the other aircraft.
Perhaps Mad(Flt)scientist could comment but, if you had a significant wing overlap, the reduced pressure between both would tend to make them attract each other.
A bit like 'squat' in ships travelling at speed in shallow water.

Wokkafans - Excellent and no cost other than fuel!
