From left to right, Capt. Dre Davis, 8th Airlift Squadron pilot, 1st Lt. Erica Drakes, 4th Airlift Squadron pilot, and Airman 1st Class Tim McLaren, 8th Airlift Squadron loadmaster, watch from the back of C-17 Globemaster III during a low-level flight training exercise. During actual air-drop missions, the aircraft has to fly lower to the ground, which sometimes creates more turbulence and inconsistent wind.
