Duck! Plane!

I saw the image before reading the article that appeared in the Daily Mail. It claims that this is the real deal. Yeesh!

Blimey! Adding to the pucker factor is the optical illusion that the runway appears to be nothing more than a sidewalk or bike path leading to the road. Gah!

Speaking of low altitude aircraft, this one almost makes me think it's photoshopped. This one, on the other hand, is very real.

Damn!
Is that a VTOL? (The real one.) I cannot believe it is that low with no landing gear down!

No, the Russian one is a Su-37 and the Saudi (I think) one is a Jaguar. Both are just flown by crazy-ass pilots.
