With ref to kingsown comment, I worked at Brize when C-17's arrived. Was told the winglets are 9 ft high! Didn't really believe it until I saw a guy stood on staging by the end of a wing and he was quite a bit shorter than the winglet! Later, had opportunity to stand by nose, and "by gum they are big"!!!
