Warzone/The Drive: Watch This Crazy Cockpit Video Of An Aussie Hawk Weaving Between High-Rises

The Royal Australian Air Force is well known for its spectacular low-level flyovers.

Australia has a long history of executing some of the most spectacular flyovers anywhere in the world. Some even occur during regular training. For decades, F-111 "Pigs" were the centerpiece of the RAAF's aerial displays, with the aircraft's ability to "dump and burn" being the ultimate air show and flyover crowd pleaser. Since the F-111's retirement, Australia's other combat aircraft have taken on more aerial display missions, with the jet that replaced the F-111, the F/A-18F Super Hornet, becoming the most visible in this role.

While it's fraking cool it should be illegal and that pilot should be put on probation. We all know how easy it is to lose control over your plane - mechanical issues not even included - and he could have easily killed a few families with this stunt. Looks cool but has no practical use in training or service.
