It's that ending, with Rob in full form and the music (anyone know what song that is?) and this shot. Seen it a lot of times now, but gets me every time.
It's not wingtip vortices/wake turbulence (which you see often on landing). It's this:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prandtl-Glauert_Singularity#Examples

Flag/farewell ceremony replay coming up...this should be with the good audio at least, wasn't sure if this was HD or not.
