Low, fast and noisy. Always impressive.
I saw a Canadian quintet team at Coventry one year 4 with tip tanks and leader/solo sans tanks showed a very vigorous roll rate! I assume they transited from an to a UK base as I doubt a Star without tip tanks could get from Lahr to Coventry direct?
I think it was the same year the Meteor and Vampire (?) were in a mid air collision.
Be lucky
