I was buzzed by a Buccaneer on the southern taxyway at RAF St Mawgan during an ‘airfield attack’ a few years ago (from behind so never saw it coming!)
Air traffic said later that he pulled up to go over me, then sank down to 6ft or so and continued to the boundary.

I invented 4 new swearwords before he reached it.

Although the air red was given and the sirens sounded, I was exercise exempt, as a part of the flight safety team, so was bimbling about as usual. The pilot (part of a 4 ship attack) spotted the only thing moving on the airfield and went for it!

A most interesting moment.
