Thanks for posting that one Borg - fantastic! I deny any involvement though....

Has to be the Evans Head range hut debacle from a few years back (although the video perspective is different from the one I've seen, so not 100% sure). If it's the one I'm thinking of, the bit of the video that isn't posted there is also instructive - the hooting and hollering turns to silence as they film the glass all over the floor inside, and realise the implications of what they've just seen.

There was a "show trial" at Amberley afterwards and they were all sent to the naughty corner for a while....

And ho ho ho Bloggs - but low level for a bomber pilot is actually defined as anywhere below 20 000', unlike in the knuck world - so can't afford to be staring at the radar while you lose a couple of thousand feet through inattention. But good point on the navs - usually fixated on the floor in fear at 100' ASL at night!
