My lasting memory of the Jag will be watching it race down the runway at Akrotiri headed for Saudi at the start of Op Granby in Aug 1990.
Over wing winders, tanks up the ying yang; there was no sign of any Bernoullis. It got to the Air Terminal looking like it had more downforce than a Formula 1 car. Rotate, attitude changed, still no Bernoullis!
End of runway appeared still no Bernoullis. Wheels snapped up, still no Bernoullis but fortunately all downhill to the sea. Like many flights in that period, a Leeming Herc departure with rockets on springs to mind, there didn't seem to have been too many performance calculations carried out.
The comments always came from those staying on the ground; "Full jet, full burner, it will be fine sir!"
