Low Flying

Always read the comments, wherein we found these amazing photos attached to the previous "Top Dumb" story. Apparently the RAF has something of a habit of flying "in the weeds":

Probably blurry because the cameraman's getting knocked around by the noise

Looks like just after takeoff, but reports are that at Red Flag the buccaneer guys would come back with grass in the pitot tubes, so who knows

I actually saw the video clip this was taken from. Alan Decatenet (the guy on the left) is almost knocked over as the guy pulls up. Lots of "F-- me! F-- me!"'s get bleeped out.

If it isn't a photoshop, this is easily the most impressive low-flyer I've ever seen. Holy m-f'ing crap!
