A neat instance of VGs in the aviation world that I've witnessed is the Joint Cargo Aircraft (C-27) which was supposed to be a twin engine Army/Airforce cargo plane. The neat thing is that the engines didn't counter-rotate (I'm guessing for logicistics and replacement purposes). Because of this, one side of the rudder had VGs placed up it to keep the flow attached.
