Living in the Scottish Borders we see this sorta thing with low flying aircraft all the time.. I used to stay in a farm cottage and regularly got ornaments actually vibrating off the mantelpiece with low flying stuff, usually less than 80 feet above.. was so common even the sheep and cows didn't even lift their heads..
hada puma helicopter flying over the field behind the house one day at about 20 foot.. he had to lift to clear the telephone wires running across the field.. highly impressive.. I miss seeing the older Yank stuff though (F1-11, A10, F15) that used to come over.. they were always a fir bit higher though (200ft) they don't do low as well as the brits (A10 being the exceptions)
love me planes I do 8)
