Just watching his buddies run is killing me, it’s hilarious. Of course if he had put that plane into the ground in just front of them he probability would have killed them all.

I totally agree JugDriver! It's one of those things that is funny, but only funny because no one was hurt.. if a wingtip clipped one of them then them running for their lives wouldn't be at all comical..

I wish i could find the youtube post of a ww2 RAF pilot talking about him and a few sqaud mates flying so low on a street in a town that a german solider poped out and had his head removed ... Back at the base word got out of what happend before he got there and no one believed it ..till the plane landed and they seen the wing tip dented and bloody

In the Canadian armed forces and CAA if you get caught flying under the 1,000ft / 500ft rule you will be grounded and a board of inquiry on your actions will be takin. Found guilty you could lose your job and have that black mark when applying for another.

Man what a rush...

I remember 22years ago walking into a RAF recruitment centre and telling the fella i wanted to fly jets..was the Jaguar and Tornado then plus harrier i think and he gave me a list of what i needed to achieve qualification wise..needless to say i was a bit short on said qualifications and decided to like many young men go n get a paid job so i could get drunk buy cars and **** loads of girls (rarely happened mind)

You know how sometimes you regret your decisions......LOL

Funny cuz here i am all those years later and still have the love of flying PC Sims and still fascinated in combat aircraft, going to Duxford again next week in fact!.....so i guess that wanting to fly was a real love of mine back then and not just something i wanted to do as a 'boy' cuz it was cool

funny how things work out, but every time i watch videos like that and 'OK' War isnt cool and all that but I get so jealous of them pilots doing that..has to be the best job in the world and one that i could actualy say and believe i would do it for free...well maybe just enough money to eat n drink..

cheers

The Way to Avoid that is to say you are doing a practice forced landing.. that way you can get away with it! My dad and I do it all the time flying past all of the bomber bases in east anglia!

Hate to be a spoil sport but if you try for the limit of the envelope you will find it. Sooner or later!
The pilot of this B-52 had several complains from his colleges and some even refused to fly with him.
As it turned out they were right and he was wrong. And eventually very dead as that is the result when you pass the border of the envelope!

practice forced landings 'do not' absolve you from rule 5, so you are litterally getting away with it.
