Anyone remember seeing the Starfighter at airshows, I was impressed many years ago by a Luftwaffe F104 at Leauchars airshow, low level run at 100ft or so down the runway, full reheat. Flew past at I presume around 600 kts and after what seemed an age the noise hits you, incredible. Then into a vertical climb. The Lightning was equally impressive, modern fighters just don't seem quite the same!

Can't wait to see the Vulcan at airshows again, fingers crossed!
