.....but I've never seen it done that low. :blink:

Low? That's not low (to misquote Crocodile Dundee....)

At the 197something Queen's Jubilee Air Display at Finningly the RAAF had a few F-111Cs to take part, one of them did the 'dump and burn' as their finale. He was SO low he set fire to the grass as he turned and climbed away!!! The Station Fire Brigade were less than amused having to demonstrate their skills before thousands of Joe and Jane Publics!  ;D
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Regards
Kit

Wanna hire a (slightly) crazy IT manager?  I'm looking...

Funny you should ask - we may need one or two soon - want to come to Australia?

Yes, but I'm already used to Defense Industry idiocy and am looking to see if Aussies do it differently than Planet Pentagon.  Tell you what, you can have my job, and I'll take the one at Greg's company.

I've got my experience with the Australian version as well.  I'm not sure if I'm to the standard required for working in the five-sided insane asylum.  Its bad enough working for the place in the shadow of the "Bunny Ears";)
