C17

Ha Ha Beags, I thought exactly the same when a few weeks back the RAF farce book page was doing the same for the C17.
Is the hole big enough? Is there anything to trip over? Will any aerodynamic effects bring you into proximity with any bits of aircraft that can get knocked off or knock bits of the parachutist.

I recall Col Parkinson at the ABFOG at Boscombe in 2000 saying of the C17 that if the Brigade can't use it just paint them white and park them up at BZN. No overseas conflict or pressure at the time, just a shortage of K frames. No J at the time.

I guess the dents from the HUPRA Dummy got knocked out of the A400! So much for all the CFD work
