Oh where does one start? Sticking on the Toom theme, we Gutersloh types used to enjoy the odd F4 det from Wildenrath. Of course, once a year they would send a few aircraft up to take part in Bold Gauntlet, a gathering of numerous NATO AD types and a few transports simulating a Berlin airlift scenario - awesome parties. I also remember the F4 chap landing having lost his back-seater. There had been a rather close call between the F4 and a Canberra with the Pilot's Nag choosing to jump out.
Many, many wonderful memories (and a few tragic ones) from the 80's RAFG.
