CV: NO Typhoon experience, some 'classic' jet low-level aeros experience and a few 'exciting' moments.
Having seen the videos, it appears that:-
1) The base height was 'broken'
2) It did not crash
3) It was 'under control' during the manoeuvre
More than that one cannot say. I suspect the alarmists on here have run away with the event. It is fairly safe to say something went wrong, either pilot or aircraft induced, and the pilot used some of the height margin in recovering. That is what it is for. Low-level aeros are inherently dangerous and can go wrong. Talk of 'BOI' and 'grounding' are over-done. It is apparent the Display Committee was satisfied. I join FJJP and FB11 in calling for an end to 'speculation'. Case closed, good display, great aircraft by all accounts.
PS Can I have a go?
