A TV series about the RAF in 1940 (A piece of cake, 1988) had a truly remarkable scene that would be computer generated these days.
Here as broadcast:

Anyone fancy a try?

I forgot to mention the bridge is about 15 miles from where I now live.

Nice flying! The Spitfire is my favorite WWII plane.

Wow

Remember the guy who flew under the Eiffel Tower?

[Mik]

Yes. It's actually been done a couple times. Once in WWII in a dogfight and once Bastille Day 1991.

Though a much larger area under the Eiffel Tower, the speed of a mirage jet must add significant risk?

[Mik]

One would think. You run into the bridge, well, bad luck. You mess up the Eiffel Tower and you best be moving to Germany.
