youtube comment:
I’ve met a C-17 pilot and regularly fly in Amberley airspace (with approval always from 452SQN) and I was discussing with him how at 400ft we would always be well below their flight line. He responded with we are certified to fly at 280ft... in the day time, 180ft at night! So I ask why lower at night? His response was you can’t see powerlines during the day but they standout like dogs balls with night vision! Respect! I’ve never seen the RAAF fly that low and close to the buildings before, but I know it’s standard operations for them. Still, be surprised if they are allowed to do it again next year, the smallest inclining of danger and the RAAF won’t want poor public relations.

Is that actually legal?
