Post by stratofreighter »

...yep, it was all over the news in Croatia last week. :!:
And also internationally noted in many places.

If these pilots were still in service in the Croatian Air Force they would most probably now have lost their "wings",
being grounded for extremely dangerous low flying.... :shock:

An unknown pilot (not me!) flying a Pilatus PC-9 turboprop,
possibly of the "Wings of Storm" Croatian military aerobatic display team,
flies just a few feet above the ground in places,
at a calculated 260mph (420kmh, 225knots).

In addition to 90-degree-plus bank angles,
flying between trees,
and buzzing traffic on the roads,
he (at the end) flies underneath the Mirna road bridge (in Western Croatia).
