Finally, at 80 feet, Jewel 62 was in the clear, although doing 600 knots, at night, using TFR.
F-me thats big balls seeing how the TFR could only get you down to 200' he must have 'paddled off' and eyeballed/zenned it. Which, lets face it, is an imprecise science and therefore worthy of beers and medals.

(Either that or the author is exaggerating for effect)
