1. Once under the control of Cottesmore LARS, I had the instruction, "G-REDI, look out for fast moving jet traffic in your 9, 10, 11,12,1, 2, 3 o'clock position" as a Harrier GR7 shot by at nnnKts. Obviously caught the controller out as well.

2. Emerging from the Lake District, the Reds passed by in front at 4 miles, recognising something else red in the sky, turned on 3 seconds of red smoke "for conspicuity".

3. Passed the BBMF going the other way in Lincolnshire a couple of summers ago.
