Via our friends at funker530, check out this South African pilot flying a Rooivalk attack helicopter while making an insanely low pass, coming just a few feet off the ground and then splitting several antenna arrays at a high rate of speed.
The impressive display of control and skill is flown by a South African Air Force Denel AH-2 Rooivalk attack helicopter. The pilot certainly knows his aircraft, as he effortlessly skims the arid landscape just a few feet off the ground. Inbound towards an apparent communications or observation site, he banks slightly left and right through several antenna arrays.
