I bet those involved won't forget that in a hurry. Kudos to the pilot in being skilled enough to gain control.

Apropos of nothing, we saw a Merlin go over today, and for the last couple of a days an Airbus A400M

I saw it but I can't talk about it here. Though, I guess I just did.
Just looked like a big butterfly to me.

Recall a number of Yahoo's took potshots at low helicopters way out near Leesburg back around 1965.

We had a low level fly-over of two AH-64's this morning. They were headed pretty much NW so may well have been heading up to Otterburn Camp in Northumberland where the army has an extensive training area.
