EC-MHJ ATR-72 @ Las Palmas 24th February 2018
Binter Canarias, ATR72 on a training excercise demonstrating how to do a low fly-past in the event of an undercarriage failure. The subsequent fly-past almost ended in disaster as the aircraft tilted right to expose its under-belly to ground staff at the same time as being caught by a gust of wind at very low level. The subsequent struggle to level-off and climb-out was fairly dramatic.
