Inappropriate low flying rather than weather, I think.


Not in BAOR or in inappropriate weather.


Pilot became disorientated in marginal conditions at dusk attempting a casevac.

Can't think of any AAC aircraft lost due to flying in weather that was below limits, although I'm sure it was done at times.
This database lists a number of military crashes. 1991 cab ran out of fuel!
