TCU I think you will find that the five ship Starfighter team that approached Biggin from crowd rear, low and fast back then (81 I think) were the Canadian Armed Forces Demonstration Team the Tiger Romeos. Great sight and sound, especially running down wind to land, remember it well. The kid in front of us was so shocked he threw his ice cream all over the people in front!


Interesting that on all the threads I have read on this tragic incident there is no mention of the changes made to UK Displays after the Ramstien accident which I think was the last time any major changes were made to air displays in the UK?

Also, if you ignore all the big blue 'Police Notice - NO VIEWING' signs on and around the junction both sides of the A27 are you not deliberately putting your self in harms way?
