Whoops a daisy | Bucharest International Air Show 2017 (Official training day)
Coming down low over the runway in a high-alpha approach for a simulated landing run, Romanian Air Force's F-16B MLU M5.2R "1610" exhibits its "dirty" configuration: landing gear down, flaps, slats and speed brakes deployed with the turbofan engine brought up to military power in order to sustain the flight on the edge of stall. Notice that the instructor pilot uses a GoPro camera in order to tape the run. Shot taken during the official training session for the Bucharest international Air Show 2017.
