The link worked for me. I made a TinyURL to make it easier if it helps. http://www.tinyurl.com/5u9npc
EDIT: Missed the edit where East fixed it. Oops. Just call me redundant.

So what is the big deal with doing a high-speed, low approach over a runway??? I mean for crying out loud, the part of land is made for aircraft to operate. I'm sure some will say "perception," but doesn't a typical civilian already have a very skewed perception of military aviation versus reality?

It looks like fun, therefore it must be bad.
This is a fundamental tenet of TRA.

"B-757 going vertical"
I stumbled across this little clip of a 757 and thought I should post it up to add to the topic of flathatting. This plane has to be one of the coolest airliners to come out of the Boeing factory!

I don't understand how a low approach could be too low. Especially if I'm also "cleared for the option." I mean, you've just cleared me all the way down to ZERO feet, so 5 or 10 feet should be no problem, right?
Well if a low approach to you means 400 knots gear up, you're doing it wrong. :icon_tong

707 Barrel Roll
I remembered seeing this on the History Channel a couple of years ago. Makes the low pass seem downright tame. I would have posted the YouTube video, but the Army network we're on out here won't let us go to YouTube. Maybe somebody else can post the video. By the way, notice that this pilot was most certainly not sacked.
