Just 'loving' the negative comments about these 'old' jets just flying, let alone putting on handling displays.

Whats the average fatigue age of a mil jet that has gone onto a civilian display life? 3-4,000 hours?

Whats the fatigue life of the last airliner you happily boarded? 10,000, 15,000?

And please don't give me the rubbish of maintenance standard differences.

These old mil jets are LOVED, not worked. They were maintained to the highest standards when they were working, and most, if not all are maintained to a higher standard in their after service life.

You can regulate all you like, but nature will do its thing regardless of your piece of dead tree.
