Coningsby 10/06/2015
I brought my dad with me to see JUST JANE this week. We stopped off at Coningsby to watch the Typhoons on Wednesday afternoon. Can I just say thanks to all the crews who taxied past and virtually without exception, gave us on the wrong side of the fence a cheery wave or popped up the airbrake. My dad was actually blown away by the friendly gesture from a fine bunch of individuals! Thanks also to JA for a superb Hurricane display in the early evening. We were just in the right place at the right time......it was truly memorable! We were also blown away when he took the time to come over for a chat after he shut down. I don't know what I was expecting but everyone we encountered from JA down were superb ambassadors for the RAF.
I was proud to be British on Wednesday!
Many thanks gents and ladies.....my dad, an army man through and through, hasn't stopped talking about it!
I just wanted to say that.
