Varig and the Stratotanker are my favorite shots in the compilation.

This one's got them all beat: can't get any lower.

that seems REALLY dangerous.

Just remember to stand on the brakes while you hold station in echelon! Hydroplaning is a good thing in this case.

Maybe lower but not as difficult or dangerous. 450 kts maneuvering vs 150kts straight and level, not even close IMHO.... Still pretty cool to watch those T-6 guys water ski like that.

Best I've EVER seen ( Sorry, no pics were allowed.) was at Diego Garcia with a -71 on the deck with 9 stages of A/B lit!
20 mile pattern, 3+ is hard to jerk your head that fast on the ground!
but here's an example,sorta..

Fair warning: turn your volume down unless you like euro trash-disco. Also, remember that best you can ever do is tie for "lowest". :)

These guys attempted to break the tie by ejecting successfully after impact, but I'd say the massive body count disqualifies them in so many ways. They are currently busting rocks in a Ukrainian jail.

not a super low flyby, but lots of low flying in an F-16. I can't think of one thing on this planet that would be more fun than doing this..
