And might that explain the proximity to the ground sans undercarriage deployed?

Re: Daily Pic (it can be more than one)....
Is it my eyes coupled with the age of the photograph, but are the three props that are in shot feathered?

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

Yes, 3 feathered. Proximity to ground is that it was probably a demo at an air show. Markings are post-war and that was quite typical. The good ol' days ....

Not the best quality shot ever, but I got this at RIAT in 2009 and thought it might be of interest; Saab Grippen doing a dump and burn during the first Saturday morning display slot, I was still walking towards my usual position (near the coffee & burger vans 
) hence the camera was not properly set up.
I didn't even realise what I'd caught until I got home later and looked back at the day's take

An obscure plane, I believe you can't get enough of them, so must be quite rare....
