Ahhh sigh................ I do remember the Families Day at Odiham in the late 70's when they had the Starfighter pair display, one of them must of been about 30 foot off the crowd line and not that much higher......... his running mate was errr directly over the crowd line........... boy was there some crying kids when they went over in reheat...........
On a footnote, I was walking around the static park with Taff Walker (as some of you may know, he was the last Flying Warrant Officer Pilot in the RAF) we came upon a Spitfire Mk19 of the BBMF and he turned to me and said,
" You know laddie, last time I saw one of these this close up, it was on the secret list"
well it made me smile..........
