This pilot gets a wee bit to close to the ground.

That is bonkers- :o

I have seen some footage of that display before but not that sequence.It would seem very likely the pilot concerned would be grounded if the authorities saw that.

He could always say that there was a wasp in the cockpit and he panicked ;)
