1000' over the dam, jeez, you need oxygen at that height. So I'm not fessing up to how low I have flown across it (mohne). Those were the days, I went down the lake west -east in a Harrier T4 at very low level so the 1000' rule must be a relatively recent ruling. Flying the attack profile from overhead Soest eastbound to the final turn onto attack track is a bloody good way of aquiring respect for the Lancaster boys . The BBMF cab was banned from overflying it on the 50th anniversary so the Red Arrows did it instead.
