Hmmm..do you like low flying aircraft?....then here ya go!

That has always been one of my favourites!

The Vulcan video above reminded me of watching the real things flying around in my youth. Sometimes age has its advantages, we got to see a lot of cool stuff over the years.

Cheers

One of my cherished memories is the time my dad took me to the exhibition day after bomb comp in the mid '80s. Among the numerous fun things was a flying exhibition by one of the visiting Vulcans. I was really chuffed when found out that there is still one flying Vulcan in the world.

Hill AFB, UT - Air Show a number of years ago. I was really impressed he did this upside down, and that I actually captured a decent photo of it!

Runway 10

Sint Maarten Island in the Carribbean

A repeat? Not sure:

- Re-runs have their place, even if it is

- Good mix; military (including a B-17), and commercial

This is just a great video of an air show at the end of World War II.

Shots of a Dakota doing a low-pass glider grab, P-47 low passes, just 10 minutes of cool backed up with era correct tunes.

Great stuff, thanks plowboy!

An all-star cast including amazing collection of late-war last-gasp innovations of the German war machine.

Might have been the film speed or something, but I'm not sure there was anybody marching in-step during that parade review at the end.

Anybody know what that airframe is right at the beginning of the film (landing and taxiing):

- 4 engine number with a twin tail? Did Germany finally come up with a heavy bomber at the very end of the war?

That aircraft landing and taxiing at the beginning looks like a Junkers Ju-290. It's probably Ju-290 A-4 No. 165.

Thank you sigo, you sound like you know what you're talking about. Never seen or even heard of these before.

Eastern Front or something? Did they ever see action!?

 

[USAFSS-ColdWarrior]

How about some "BELOW Ground Level" flying....

​

And, while this isn't exactly a particularly low level formation, it is just above observable obstructions....

​

Now just to show of some civilian low level performance...
How is this for a 747-400 on approach to Hong Kong in 1998......

​

Carry on.

That's a special formation there. Do you know what was the occasion?
