Impressive!
Quite an expensive way of cutting the grass though

A very well known clip which has appeared several times on PPRUNe......
A cowboy take-off from the OFMC lot. Which nearly decapitated the journo....
Really impressive.......not!
BEagle old boy, unpucker a little. The journo is Alain de Cadenet, himself a Spitfire pilot/owner I believe. Don't think it was a take-off either, not at that speed inside the airfield perimeter. Marvellous stuff, love it! :E .

Guess a few of us know a bloke that once took someone's head off doing things like that........
OK, stop right there. Backpocket, that incident does not warrant repeating. Bad taste - the effect on certain crew members.
Suggest you delete your comment...

It was a take off.........
With a certain well known ex-Reds leader at the controls ;)
Well that's what the guy that filmed that clip said......
