What a hoot! Thanks for posting that. Definitely a keeper. I think
my reaction would be the same. That was much too close for comfort.

Someone in the thread said he thought the Spitfire cleared the
reporter by 50'. No way. It was much closer than that. Here is a
six frame animation (473 KB GIF animation).

Individual JPEG files are here,

The height shown in the first frame is from the ground to the leading
edge of the wing. The airplane did climb during the six frames, but
not much.
