Amazingly this was done in an Airbus! No tree was hurt in the making of this.

Remember the 50-50-90 rule. Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there's a 90% probability you'll get it wrong!

Its good fun to try in the sim though, yesterday I hopped in an F-16, locked autopilot heading and altitude control (100 feet AGL) on and blasted it full power down over the runway at San Francisco. Was great fun to watch back from Tower view.

Sorry I didn't realise that this had already been posted. Feel free to remove it. Yes it is great fun. The last couple of days I have been attempting high speed (700 kts) inverted low passes along the runway at NZAA in the Mirage. Quite difficult to maintain directional control when inverted.........brain just can't think quickly enough.
