Had a Chinook fly at very low level over me today on a duel carriage way; scared the living bejasus out of the work-experience clone in the passenger seat! Suppose it had to be at atleast 200ft but I swear I could feel its approach over the sound of the radio and engine noise.
Has anyone been surprised by a low level historic that they weren’t expecting?

Had a similar experience on the A303 near Boscombe coming over the brow of the hill to be confronted by a Chinook at 200ft! Also this year on the M3 being over taken by a CH-53 at about 500ft. That one did drown out the radio! On the historic front nearly cr**ed myself at Lee On Solent during seawings 2000, Canberra did a over shoot at the coast end very,very low over the road, could not see it coming due to houses! 😮
