...even in Kent, you know its low when the shot is landlocked at an actual airfield, and the snapper is stood on the deck!

Great shots, it took a lot of nerve from the pilot not to 'Bang Out'.

"Deliberately that low" and "VERY experienced" .... Those two terms are surely opposite !

You can't argue that the teams pilots are very experienced. But, I very much doubt that was deliberately done.

Surely thats the valley at the western end of the runway so probably not as low as it looks.

Looks to me like he's over the valley. Ray Hanna regularly took MH434 down onto it off a loop, back in the 70's and early 80's display aircraft would often use it for effect, even a Victor at a BoB Open day once that I saw. No doubt the pilot did get a serious talking to as such manouvres were banned after the A-26 crash.
