I recall seeing a military plane being flown fairly close to the ground in an aggressive manner by its pilot. High speed passes and extreme banking of the wings to wow an audience it seemed. This was a rather large plane but with a pencil thin fuselage.

I think the accident you are referring to was a B-52 crash that the pilot was practicing for an airshow back in 1994.
