Lower than a Snake's Belly in a Wagon Rut

A good read, some familiar low level antics but plenty that I'm sure you've not seen or heard about.

I seem to recall its Ray Hanna flying the Spitfire in that last one - the high levels of 'f*ck me' one.

As soon as I saw the 707 I thought the VC 10 was about to turn up

Great site, many thanks - enjoyed it very much!
If I could see one as a video I'd choose the Belgian F-104 or the Air Zimbabwe 707!

Cheers,

Very interesting. Had to send an e-mail to Mr. O'Malley however as his photograph of the C-60 crashing was not due to a low pass. The aircraft was attempting to takeoff with a strong quartering tailwind while trying to get out of Midland in front of an approaching storm after CAF's AirSho several years ago. What you see is the wingtip impacting as a gust of wind hit the plane while below minimum control airspeed that the pilot was unable to counter. The airplane was spun through 180 degrees, impacted, slid, and then caught fire. Everyone got out okay, but the plane was totaled. So, it was a crash due to "gethomeitis", not low flying.
