I thoroughly enjoyed my brief time on the Jaguar.

It was a great little aircraft that was really very good for the roles for which the RAF used it.

My only - only - gripe about it was that it really was underpowered. I never flew the Omani version, so I do not know if that variant resolved the problem the RAF ones had - no doubt someone out there will know - but a wee bit more thrust both in military and burner would have been much appreciated, even at the loss of range/fuel consumption.

But a lovely aircraft to fly.
