I believe I may have been there that day & seen it from a different angle.. I had just taken off on a dual arrival check in a Harrier when Batty in the back suddenly exclaimed ‘I HAVE CONTROL’ .. the aircraft lurched forward alarmingly and I saw (and heard) a very large 104’s Burning reheat pass a few feet over my head, an image I shall never forget..
Fortunately JB in the back had far more SA than I and suspected something was up - he spotted the 104 in the mirror just as he went past the tower.. The 104 guy never saw us 😳
A couple of years I remember looking at a 104 in a hangar at Gutersloh that had had a mid-air with a Jaguar (I think part of the tail ended up in a swimming pool at Warendorf) his pitot was bent right back, little other damage - I recall the Jag guy (Who I subsequently worked on another Jag mid-air BOI with) did not even Realise what had happened until he landed at Bruggen..
Happy days
I believe that it was an F104 that collided with a two seat Harrier in the mid-80's?
Bruce Cogram was killed, the pilot under check ejected and survived.
