KC 135 Low Pass

[eldudu74]

nope,no fake.i did my terms in chad in 1994,and i saw many planes,jaguars,transalls,mirag­e f-1 and yes,a c-135fr do this.

how could i forget that morning when a flyboy in a jag,flew soooo fast,and so freaking low we heard him only when he was above us,we all ducked even though the plane was already a hundred yards away when we hit the ground.a few seconds passed before one of us could speak,and the first word was,quote:putain le con!

[jblair05]

man if you see the original video of this the video quality is unbelievably clear.

[terrymanning1]

Fake. Fake. Fake.

[FCbisleybob]

umm its is reasonable to suspect fakeness as it is so amazing. are they not worried the engines will pick up debris. i know they doo this with small jets but this thing shifts alot of air

[antiflax]

Not necessarily. Sure, the engines suck in a lot of aid but it dosen't suck stone or gravel from the ground. If it was stationary, perhaps then there would be some risk of damage.

[geoago]

Nooooooooooo!!!!!

[MoNziL]

it is not fake...it's france air force xD...they are crazy but i can asure u it ain´t fake..that is realand the french air force doesn´t know who lew that play or he would be out of the force.. very nice flying though

[PuppyZwolle]

Nods. They probably have tried this stunt for real ... but this vid is a fake. Just look at the quality of the image. The plane and the rest just is out of sink.

[conehead18]

The wingtip vorticies shoud have been picking up a lot of sand and debris I think it is fake but I am not sure

[Muangue]

Fake, fake fake, hooo its air force, no tourism...

French air force :)

[bassplaya1549]

no it aint fake...itz juz a lil weird...and y would som1 do that anyway lol

[jfrebrycn]

He couldn't answer that if he tried I wouldn't have thought! If you take the height of the trees under the plane to be similar to those in the foreground, the plane is at least 60 feet off the ground. If it was early morning the sand would have moisture in it which would stop it being blown up in the air as well.

[jfrebrycn]

It's probably 80 feet up or more, hence not much dust? Utterly insane and a great clip anyway, it's just cool to see the military messing about with millions of francs worth of plane..

[wapac]

hey boogersnotloogie, it is not fake. the only thing that is fake is what you THOUGHT was your wifes last orgasm.

[boogersnotloogie]

Fake! A low flying plane in a desert should at least raise some sand! And a plane of that size should raise lots of sand!

[tommcd]

OK explain why you think this plane would raise sand. I hope you have a thorough knowledge of this aircraft and of general physics.

[Essential80]

Damn! :)

[Essential80]

Damn! :)

[pgplayer]

lol @ wapac!!

[wapac]

that boom operator had blue eyes!!!

[colhunt76]

So that's what the pilots are doing with our bird while we chrew chiefs BS 'round the fire bottle...

...no wonder we occasionally pull small birds and bits of leaves out of the primary fan rotors. ;)

[frenchperson]

But the brainless will still say that a plane can't fly that fast that low as in 757 into the Pentagon.

[metro752]

smooooooooooooth

[DanFrederiksen]

very smooth sound. one might say too smooth

[bagotc]

uterly insane, :).

Btw: this is the french airforce in Tchad, and the guy in the back says "wake up guys!"

[YIIMM]

"Reveillez, les gars!"

It's rare you see a plane of that size make a pass that low.
