Oh what fun it was at the back end of the '2' for the '25' flypast in '77! As we took off at the tail end of the 25-ship stream (I think, counting spares) the leader was already overhead Leeming, and turning back to the South-East. At least that allowed us to cut the corner to catch up! After that it was a case of 'riding the waves' as they came rippling down the echelon of the '2'.
