The images in this post were taken on Dec. 12, 2007 when, for the 100 años de la aviación civil argentina (100 years of Argentine Civil Aviation), a Boeing 737-500 “LV-BEO” belonging to the Aerolineas Argentinas performed a really low flyby over the Aeroparque at Buenos Aires.
Photographs were taken by an accompanying IA-63 Pampa jet trainer that escorted the jet liner along with a Learjet.

My friends,
Please check out the first seconds of this video of a VERY low pass of a Airbus A320.
