Whoever owns these jets, they will only be displayed by pilots given the requisite Display Authorisation. Moreover, I've heard that those pilots will be ex-RAF (or even serving RAF) chaps with massive FJ experience, who have remained current on types with similar performance, and who are highly experienced air display pilots.

Sorry if that's a bit dull, and sorry if it spoils a good story.
