Spitfire Suprise Low Pass ➶

I have always loved the flying and camera work in this video, pulling away from the speaker slowly, to reveal the approaching airplane, flying so low it is still hidden in camouflage with the English landscape, and given away by a bit of dust it kicks up from the ground that makes you realize its frighteningly low altitude and high speed as the plane comes straight at the viewer and camera crew, from behind the speaker, who shares our reaction!

The Spitfire in the video was flown by RAF pilot and Red Arrows aerobatics display team founding member Ray Hannah.
