Some amazing flight clips there Gary Very Happy ... That aerobatic clip at the end is totally phenomenal Shocked ... Planes just don't do that!!! Laughing

I still have lots of happy memories of the 'Biggin Hill Air Show'*, back in my childhood... Standing under the wing of a Vulcan Bomber when it's warming up it's engines is a never-to-be-forgotten experience, believe me!!! .... No such thing as 'Health & Safety back then Wink


* Biggin Hill is one of the historic WWII Battle of Britain airfields, about 10 miles from where we lived...

Have you ever been upclose to a B-52 Question That is a site. It holds something like 40,000 gallons of jet fuel.

Unfortunately, the runway was too short for the B52's to land at Biggin Hill Sad

They did have a B52 from one of the USAF bases, here in the UK, make a slow fly-by escorted by Supermarine Spitfires and Hawker Hurricanes... they were like comparing Hummingbirds to crows Laughing
