If the Starfighter crashed in '79, then the B-25 pic must have been taken the following year, because I witnessed the F-104's demise and I wasn't in the grandstand, from where the B-25 pic was taken.

I seem to remember the 104 had finished his display and was in the circuit to land and just fell out of the sky into a field about a mile from the airfield.

I went to Yeovilton shows every year for about 8 years, it was a fabulous show, in a great location and always attracted some super aircraft - and yes, FRADU's display team was the Blue Herons, named after Yeovilton's nautical name, HMS Heron.
