Silverstone 1992 (the year nigel mansell won, and the last year of the Sharks). Paul S-S was the SHAR display, and took advice from the other pilot (a certain J*ck Lon*on, RIP) as to whether a short take off departure from the short runway on the Saturday would be OK. J reassured him that it would. The take off stripped the entire runway of its tarmac, in great slabs, and deposited most of it on the race track, I know, I watched it happen!!
Interestingly, the Silverstone management managed to find from somewhere, a road laying machine, what's more they managed to get it through the traffic jams the evening before race day, work through the night, and by morning the short runway was fully repaired, as were those sections of the race track that were trashed.
Point being that the Harrier downwash (rotary expression) on 30 nozzle can have a most undesirable effect on the world around it!
