Insane low flying - One of the wildest flights I've ever seen

Описание к видео Insane low flying - One of the wildest flights I've ever seen

An unknown pilot (not me!) flying a Pilatus PC-9 turboprop, possibly of the "Wings of Storm" Croatian military aerobatic display team, flies just a few feet above the ground in places, at a calculated 260mph (420kmh, 225knots). In addition to 90-degree-plus bank angles, flying between trees, and buzzing traffic on the roads, he (at the end) flies underneath the Mirna road bridge (in Western Croatia).

Some have said that he is a skilled military pilot. That may be so, and would certainly qualify him to fly to a better standard than most of us, but I am of the view that it could be only a matter of time before he makes a small mistake, with the inevitable consequence.

Edit (20th July 2019): My calculation for the aircraft's speed is as follows:

1. Open the video in http://www.watchframebyframe.com/watc...
2. Go forward to where he flies over the smaller bridge just beyond the large bridge. Note this happens at time 03:17:96
3. Carry on to where he flies over the start of the red-tiled building, approximately, and note the time again = 03:20:75
Time difference is 2.79 seconds.
4. Go onto Google maps at the site (flying right to left):
https://www.google.com/maps/place/45%...
5. Right-click the small bridge, select "measure distance", and then left-click on the right-hand edge of the red-tiled roof of the building to the left.
This gives distance: 1062 feet.
6. Given that there are 5280 feet in a mile, and 3600 seconds in an hour, its speed is: (1062/5280) x (3600/2.79) = 259.93 mph
