Good fun as No.2 in a low level pair to call that Lightning as a contact, albeit years after the demise of the beast, and watch the slight wobble from the lead. Another "goodie" is the Woodford Vulcan when called as a contact to the other pilot in a multi-crew aircraft, with the rider when rebuked that I had called correctly with all but the fact that the Vulcan was on the ground.
Is the Swift in Herefordshire extant? The Hunter on the A17 came too late for me at low level, but sometimes raised a smile when operating at Norwich. Jet Provost at Lulsgate, the list grows. Even Elgin has a beast close to the road.
The Swift is being offered for sale at seriously silly money, and it has had it's price halved from it's original listing, what a shame for such an historic aircraft.
