“My fastest/lowest combination was 700 KIAS at 100 ft overland in a CF-104 out of Cold Lake - and that was spectacular!”
Blimey, that must have been some ride! I managed 650+ (not sure by how much) IAS below 100ft in a jumping bean. Yes, I know that is WELL above VNE but I was in a bit of a rush to get a firing solution at the bottom of a screaming-Jesus dive from 10k with the limiters tripped. The aircraft didn’t react well to the first Lima launch and I ended up with 140 degrees of instantaneous roll to starboard and a face-full of sea.
The other guy had it worse though. Swing the lamp.
