Plane spotters get shock!

What happens when you insist on standing next to the airfield fence when a Eurofighter Typhoon lands?

I wish I'd been there! I think it was a bit lower than normal given the wheels brushed the hedge...

I like the permanent "notches" in the hedge.  Obviously they do it quite often.   I'm surprised they haven't set it alight with the dry weather in the UK at the moment.

Its not quite that dry yet, we had a long wet winter and the heatwave has really settled in this week.

Downunder, that's perfect bushfire weather.  Loads of wet in Winter/Spring to promote growth then a dry heat wave for it all to dry out quickly.

I watched a Dutch Navy P-3 Orion undershoot once at Waddington, and we were watching from the official spotters area just down the way thank goodness. His wheels went THROUGH the hedge and the prop-wash blew tons of bracken, branches and leaves all over the road! 

They sent a couple of Landies out to clear it all off. 'Crash Crew man your brooms!'
