Funny thing.
In a previous life I was Secretary to the RAF Participation Committee (probably non-existant today) whose prime role was to approve military aircraft participation at air shows. The Chairman would not even debate my suggestion that the Luftwaffe be invited to participate in the annual B of B at home days. Completely inappropriate, he spluttered.
In my final year in the service, as per norm, the RAF Leuchars airshow Friday's practice coincided with the stations family's day.
So as the oldest daughter was happily terrorising herself on some extreme fairground ride, I and some other F4 relics, were watching entranced at the Luftwaffe F4 display, the bit he gets really close to the ground, 130 degree bank at @50' over our heads when a reheat blows out and we get to see the control surfaces (rudder etc) all being kicked in by the jockey as he continues his phab display with 1&1/2 engines....
Some things you dont forget!
