I remember in 1959 or 1960 going to the USAF Bentwaters airshow in RAF Uniform
That was when I was there. I'm glad you enjoyed the airshow, my father was in charge of most of them. He'd be very happy that people still remember them.
Back to the 101, I seem to remember that when the 101 first came out that both ABs lit at the same time, so rather than a Boom/Boom it was a single really large Boom. But then it was discovered that the wing spar was being damaged by the force of both ABs lighting at the same time and after that the ABs were staggered, one after the other.
But like I said earlier, I was just a kid at the time I heard this and could be wrong.
Also, when I was at Bentwaters/Woodbridge there were three squadrons of F-101s and a squadron of F-100s. The F-100s were at Woodbridge.
