Facts
To all those people who have been writing utter uninformed drivel here is something to ponder whilst you type away. A few weeks ago 111 ( F) Squadron intercepted and shadowed a Bear "H" off the UK coast - at night at low level. Through his NVG;s the back seater could see the Bear and the Lights of the UK in one frame. That sums up the F3- defending the UK- Not as some of you have put it " a waste pf money" . No doubt you have sat in your warm bungalow typing away your vitriol oblivious to the fact "someone" is looking after you. Frankly those who knock the RAF crews doing QRA 24/7 need lining up and shooting. For the record i flew 1200Hrs + on the F3, and sure it wasnt the best but it did the job it was designed for. The guys who fly it today get far less time in the cockpit than i ever did and i take my hat off to them- Oh and Tourist who ever you are, were you by any chance an only child, or bullied at school??
