Then there were the 4 aerobatic Hunters and a T11 Vampire out of Odiham on a photo shoot circa 1955 caught out by deteriorating weather.
Vampire got back into Odiham and the Hunters slit into 2 pairs. Second pair May Day-ed for a GCA at Farnborough but the ATCO said quite non plussed " Cannot help you I'm afraid - too busy with own aircraft - either call Tangmere on emergency or bail out PLEASE"
Blue 3 bailed near Tangmere and Blue 4 did a wheels up dead stick across Tangmere.
Blue 1, USAF Capt Immig, then tried for Farnborough's poor man's GCA ( no vertical guidance) and was fortunate to squeeze in on last fuel dregs. On the landing roll out Blue 2 called "Our father which art in heaven" as his Hunter ran out of gas.
Still have a copy of the Farnborough audio tape.
