Numb 6 and 1 FTW. Over the water and the plumes. So pretty!

Not sure about number 3 as the perspective makes it impossible to tell just how low it is.

Similar shot but much more funny:

I found 2 more impressive just because of the size of the thing!

Pfffft RAF St Athens

It was the pilots last ever flight and decided to do a flyby for the ground crew on full afterburner, thing was he did it when someone very high up was visiting and he was not amused, by all accounts got a massive bollocking, but last flight so didn't care




ETA: Also St Athens I believe and such an awesome machine

Bucaneers were always the best for seriously low, ground hugging stuff.
I used to live in Aberdeenshire and you'd sometimes see a couple of T-tails whizzing past sticking up above a line of trees or slight rise in the ground.

I saw some homemade videos from Desert storm when I was in the cadets of them flying Bucaneers over the desert in ground effect, kicking up twin plumes of dust behind them.

The omani airforce are pretty crazy too. Jaguar.

If it is, it would have been awsome to have been there!

Those spitfire ones were superb - hard to imagine how they got such large balls into the cockpit !

Of course, some might say engines are for poofs.

Apparently the desire to pull back on the stick when you see the ground that close is VERY hard to overcome.

Awesome collection of videos and pictures in this thread! Made of win!


In the first video, am I right in thinking flyby number 1 (the final one in the video), the pilot is breaking the sound barrier?
