Can't compete with 5 but the one I saw was all rather surreal. Waiting at the lights on the peritrack at Chiv (the main gate was closed for refurb) a Hawk was on finals over the estuary. All looked OK until it started to drift lower, then the pilot banged out leaving the aircraft to land short and skid accross the peritrack about 30 yards in front of us! The tide was out so the pilot got rather muddy
