I'm sticking with 500'. We have a whole different set of low altitudes rules that we have to good through if we good below 500' - and I'm doubting that he would have forgotten the altitude if he were below 500'.
I concede though that I know nothing of low altitude training rules as they apply to USAF heavies.
Btw - how big do you expect a shadow of a C-17 to be from 500'
