There is low flying, 'LOW' flying and then there is …

…Dusting,

Here you touch the crop with the wheels to mark the position for the next pass. These shots are from the early 1970s but it is all Agcats, helicopters and health and safety now and they use tassle markers.

The pilot, who sent me the two Stearman shots, has over 13k hours of stick and rudder time and couldn’t see what all the fuss was about with that under the bridge deal in the ‘Piece of Cake’ – “Loads of room”.

The third shot is over the same valley but from the back of his former TF – this time he was only low flying. 🙂

Does anyone remember the B-52 pilot that liked to fly in ground effect a few years ago 😮 , Crashed while doing it after airbase beat up, Mad ******* killed his crew with him 😡 , Was some great shots of him passing his Airforce Buds having a picnic in the sticks 😮 , And I mean appearing from no where and going past a zero feet 😮 , Buds thought it was a real hoot, Great cam shots, Not long after this he went in, Cheers everyone, Tally Ho! 😉 Phil(well the 52s are old)

any of the outside of the TF51D?

Greg,

I was using a borrowed Canon A-1, with fixed 35mm wide angle, from Spencer Flack. Not ideal for the outside shots.

Tbirdman,

It most certainly could be.
