He hit a low lying area of the runway with some surface water and totally obliterated the bottom side of the aircraft. The ground crew had a few choice words when they got a look at her up close. It was a mess and probably took multiple hours to clean.

I bet it did !
At my local airshow once, back in the 1980's, the RAF were going to position a Harrier on the field, but when they saw that it would be either relatively soft 'Tarmac' at the small hardstanding areas, or the grass field itself, they just did the display and flew home, as it would have cost too much in time, and personnel, to prepare a PSP 'pad' in advance.
The Harrier did manage to blow a crop of carrots out of the adjoining field though, when it did its 'nod to the crowd' act - hilarious, seeing a shower of carrots descend over the fire truck I was sitting in !!
