Of course, the Mach Loop isn't the only LFA in the UK and I recall both the Goldstar and the Bat going LL in the Lake District. I certainly saw photos of the Goldstar jet.

That is until a very senior officer banned TGRF from low-level completely in January, hence why the camo jet never went LL in that scheme.
