A U.S. Airman pushes a button on an overhead panel in the flight deck of a C-17 Globemaster III assigned to the 60th Air Mobility Wing during a training flight over Northern California, Aug. 27, 2025. The overhead panel of a C-17 contains controls for the externally blown flap system, which allows the aircraft to use engine thrust to keep the flaps extended, offering better lift and enabling steep, short-field takeoffs and landings at low speeds.
