I had to land on 06 at Farnborough in the 80's when the Dash8 had stumphed in on the threshold of 24.

Same display; coordinated display between Hawk (flown by outstanding Irish pilot!) and SHAR. As soon as he had landed on 24, I took off in opposition on 06 - both driving on the left in true Brit fashion. Crossing speed c 250 kts, what could possibly go wrong?

Also witnessed Varsity v Jet Provost 180 out at Leeming in 69. JP stude though he was landing at Dishforth; very impressive opposition go-around!
