Grrr

What a numpty. That could so easily have resulted in deaths on the ground and in the aircraft. Is this particular spot (Sharana, Afghanistan) somewhat elevated? Doesn't look like the pilot (loose term ..... in this instance) considered available performance (or lack of it), never mind that it was a pointless manoeuvre to begin with.
