Low Flying Bucc

Hi All,

I seem to recall sometime ago, mention of low flying Buccaneers. Is this low enough, to count?

Cheers,
Neilly

Best Buccaneer display I saw was at Woodford in 1991 or 2. After take off he immediately did a max rate roll to port with extremelt marginal wing clearance!

Amazing.

Yanks and the Bucc

I recall seeing a piece of film footage several years ago taken I believe during a Red Flag exercise,

An American serviceman was complaining to the film crew because the drivers of the RAF Buccaneers weren’t playing fair, he moaned that they were flying so low, he couldn’t get a lock on to the aircraft with his equipment. Poor Chap !!!
