RCAF CF-18 Training Course Documentary Series - "Jetstream"
They're right to be nervous. I'll happily letterbox below a low cloud base through valleys and watch while a student does the same. However, start allowing them to throw the jet upside down close to the ground and my hands drift much closer to the controls.
LLAT had its place but sadly that time has gone. Either do low level properly or not at all. Just my opinion of course.
As for the F35. I'll be amazed if anyone will risk letting a bird make a mess of the expensive exterior. I predict that photos of F35s flying through the Mach loop will be a rare commodity indeed.
