“What we learned over the last 48 hours ... gave us a great pause as to whether we wanted to have a large mass gathering on a military base.
“We cancelled our picnic – we haven’t cancelled a single combat sortie. We haven’t taken our foot off the throat of the enemy – none of that has changed.
“So if the terrorists consider us cancelling a picnic as a victory, I think they should readdress their calculus.”

But that is the Catch 22, only takes someone to make an over-excited assessment of a marginally off colour phone call and we start changing our lives, which is all they need to do. I admire the guts of those who decided to stay on in Tunisia, in many cases to support the country and its economy.

Something must be going on, intel wise. Be wise to give it a wide berth. And how about while I'm here, convert the Red Arrows into a crack dedicated anti terror squadron using the latest technology and the best people that can deliver the right munitions onto the head of anyone that dare cross us (and there are many at the moment) be that in this country or anywhere else.....war in the middle 21st century.. all in it together.

And the Press Association use a photo of the Red Arrows to illustrate their report of this - flying the GNAT!

aah, the real aeroplane then...................
and all the comment so far on that site sees the decision as "capitulation to extremists". I have to say I am somewhat of that view myself

Below the Glidepath - not correcting
I believe it was Sir Winston Churchill who said "You can always rely on the Americans to do the right thing, but only after they have tried everything else".
I realise it would take some planning and a lot of missed displays but could someone organise that the next Russian Bear that comes close to our airspace is met by the RAFAT +1 with a toggie on board for the publicity photos.
