Dirtystopout....
Oh how the story gets changed with each time its told again...........you were correct that it was an F4 & that was it.....no reheat, definately no scorch marks (he flew over the graduates......their hats all went flying but I never knew of anyone with a tan!!!). As for demotion, that happens in the civilian world.....he was sent to another unit to fly Jet Provosts as a punishment....he retained his rank!!
if you are going to tell a story third hand get it right.......I have the whole flypast on video & know one of the instructors present on the day
