Speedywheels,
My sentiments entirely, MSPs and the SNP have been getting right on their high horses over this, yet none can possibly offer anything similar to go in place should independence become a reality.
Having been at Leuchars on Saturday and accepting the way the R.A.F. orbat is these days, I think they did a marvelous job. Got to admit though, had it not been for the Austrains and the Swedes (especially the Viggen) it would have struggled a bit. I've boticed that the home based aircraft when ever they put up have always been restricted to flypasts and or role demos, no formation drills culminating in zoom climbs like it was in the early 90s and before.
So, wonder what the future holds now?

29 years ago being 1984, I was on the ground at Finningley that very day.
