  • It was a close-call or a near-miss, you say. But I would say that this was one of a hell good trained PILOT!!

  • them planes do it all the time at airshows to scare people its like the thunderbirds and blue angels doing sneek passes to make people jump

  • it was a mistake he was told to abort twice but continued

  • @okaaaiiiden yes you are right it was waddington

  • @Snipersuperbug

    It was a mistake. and he was grounded for it.

  • @lonelykatana ive flown one with cadets is so fun

  • @lonelykatana I have to admit after having flow Grob 115e's as well as gliders that I consider Gliding to a little bit trickier. I know there are loads more switches in a Powered aircraft but in a glider you have to consider distance and time flying in relation to the airfield, lift and thermals, where they are, how strong they are etc. There is so much more to think about whilst in the air because you have no engine. With an engine you have no need for thermals or need to worry about distance.

  • @lonelykatana cheers. I must admit I am guilty of such flying...gliders tho!

  • @lonelykatana considering that I have lived on RAF bases conducting airshows all my life and still do and that I have seen it happen it does happen....I completely agree that it is both dangerous and illegal....but it does happen. Just because it is not allowed doesn't stop them from doing it. Which is why a lot of pilots recieve more than a few stern words about their flying.

  • What is with the faggot music?

  • I thought the Typhoon's fly by wire avionics was supposed to prevent this sort of thing, to stop the pilot from flying into the ground. Then again, maybe it did cut in and saved both pilot and aircraft. Just seemed to work very late I thought!

  • oh what the pilot delibratly did this i dont think so the pilot went below 500ft ATC had to call of eurofighter display to dangerous to fly particuly in front of thousands of people pilot error he did a twiddle role to low just nailing the runway around about 25ft which is very low

  • @smilingvulcan aircraft are often flown below 500 feet at shows....

  • How is this a near miss? I've seen countless pilots do this maneuver on purpose, lol.

    Over water tends to look cooler.

  • good joke !!! ha ha !! this typhoon pilot was just lucky , the inverted loop has been started too earlier ..

    A french Rafale M did the same thing over the Sea ..

  • near miss ???? when !?

  • what is RIAT?those things are sooo loud!i saw a Eurofighter Typhoon yesterday at Raf Cosford Air Show,Cosford,Shropshire

  • Royal International Air Tattoo

    its one of the biggest air shows in the world

  • *Sigh* guys, guys, am i the ONLY one who actually knows what they're talking about here? ...Clearly he didn't re-route the flux capacitor system properly which forced him into a pozidrive override routine, thus causing a blackout in the computers nervous system...

  • Wibble

  • Mace - the pozidrive override routine is an effective recovery - in THIS situation. If he was suffering an overflabulated oblation of the port traction loop, it would have had the opposite effect.

    Good job he could see the difference really!

  • that was a perfect maneuver. It is part of the display. Its also obvious it was controlled cause of the way he came in : Slow and steady. Watch again and ull see.

  • The pilot was left shaken after the flight. Had it been any other aircraft it would have hit the ground. He was also told to land as he broke the 500 foot height rule and was hauled before the flight safety committee

  • @themelodramaticclam

    This is anything but perfect. It's too close to the ground. The pilot should feel lucky he didn't crash.

  • Eurofagger Sucks Dick!

    @themelodramaticclam A lame plane & name Eurofagger fits its perfectly +yo is a Eurodweeber & Eurodorker + how about Euromuthafucka? Cockpit is jammed + this plane is for Euromidgets. Its under powered with a lame computer + its aint got a clue when it comes to stealth + stands out like a sore thumb. No gattling guns,no J-DAM + its look like a bunch of stupid Eurotards designed it. A Russian Mig-15 would make short work of this flying piece of shit with two wings!

  • @LottoWinner999, Wow, alot about being gay in your comment. My professional opinion would be that you are accusing other people and things as being gay in order to hide your own blatant homosexuality. Now piss off, and cry in a corner because of your shame for being a cockmuncher and a shirtlifter.

  • I know that pilot. He drinks down my local and he`s a proper wanker.He loves throwing bar stools about when there are familys around.Always doing stupid stuff.

  • I know him too, he hides in my wardrobe and stares at me in my dreams. Wanker.

  • Its the normal Manouverability of a Typhoon...

    This was showen so often its not really spectacular.

    A german pilot was banned from a english airshow cause he doing that manouver, its easyer than ride my bicycle.

  • he knew what he was doing, wasn't even close to crashing :)

  • more lucky than fatal BAE Hawk 200 crash in Slovakia

  • he did mean to do this. iv seen eurofighters do that piles of times. these are the best pilots in the world, they know wat theyr doing

  • I know they are the best pilots in the world! But there are low leval limits at airshows! I think he miss judged the hight a tad!...

  • I disagree with you completely because i know the pilot and he is allowed to do that as part of his display but not at any other time.

  • He ment to do this???????? You fools! There is no way that anyone would risk 1. A multi million pound aircraft for hot dogging 2.the lifes of the croud. 3.the life of a highly traind R.A.F piolt. This eurofighter deffinatly had skid marks in the seat after it landed!...

  • im currently training for the eurofighter in the RAF.. i do know

  • how long you been in the R.A.F? And what did you fly before training for the Eurofighter?...

  • can i guess you started on hawks??

  • I disagree with you completely because i know the pilot and he is allowed to do that as part of his display but not at any other time.

  • Then would you care to explain why the controllers at RIAT issued a Knock It Off command and subsequently cancelled the rest of this display?

  • because they cant take it that he is better than them :)

  • @joelwhitaker

    you obviously don't.

  • he ment to do this.. he wasnt even that close to the ground. if you watch closely, he controlled his decent perfectly so he would get as close to the ground as possible, safely.

  • I agree, i know him. he flared the aircraft perfectly to controll this part of his display.

  • It wasnt a mistake!!...as y'all know the plane is run by several computers 1 computer went waierd and caused this!

  • Wrong!!!!!! if 1 computer fails then the aircraft would just fall out of the sky because they are designed to be aerodynamically unstable. Anyway there are backup computers!!!!

  • no if that happens he can just press ctrl+alt+del correct me if im wrong but im sure that's how it goes.

  • LOL!

  • @al3xt3hl0nly no but this plne is only able to fly becuase of computers ( in no ur joking)

  • Unbelievable !! pilots bum must have been twiching hehe

  • How much is minimum height?

  • He came with 5 meters of landing the aircraft without wheels

  • @smilingvulcan that was part of the display and i know because of the sunderland airshow that it appears at sometimes, there is no limit to how low it can go, its goes less then 500 ft here and also does that maneuvere above water just not as low as he does in this video as he dont want to drown a multi million pound jet the sea

  • Oh right i apologise i must be thinking of a russian maneuvere :/

  • DUPE!

  • song name?

  • Moby - Natural Blues
