Ukrainians Flying Low Enough to Cut Grass
Published 2 years ago
Insane footage taken by a GoPro mounted to the tail of a Ukrainian rotary wing asset shows the pilot flying low enough to the ground to nearly touch the deck with his landing gear.
We don't have much context for this footage. I just wanted to post it so we could all appreciate the pure skill required by the Ukrainian pilots pulling this off. They're flying at a very high rate of speed just meters off the deck in an environment where they could be shot down by Russians with MANPADs. Even though they're flying in mostly friendly territory to conduct their high-angle rocket attacks, there's still a possibility that a Russian advanced team could be carrying a ground-to-air weapon system capable of bringing these guys down.
