    How long after that Shot did it take until you ditched? That's very low! A small Wave and you're doomed...

    The good old-fashioned 'salt water turbine and structural cleanser' is the bane of military low-level aviation everywhere.

    I you really get moving, about 500KIAS, then you can fly down this low nice and stable. I wouldn't do it in real life though.

    I did that with a Lancair Legacy in FSX about 6 months ago or more. Cool shot!

    Good thing there weren't any waves! It would be nice if FS had a wake effect behind the aircraft when you fly low over water.
