On leave from Odiham one summer in Pitlochry with the future Mrs P whilst a QHTI Cse was going on at Leuchars. We'd just finished a pleasant walk along the Tummel to Killiekrankie and back and were enjoying an ice cream down by the river just north of the dam, the peace being disturbed by 2 F3's doing a fairly lowish CAP overhead.
I'd just finished explaining what they were up to and had just said 'they're probably looking for someone' when 2 18Sqn cabs popped up over the dam and disappeared off in the direction of Blair Atholl whilst the F3's carried on with their up and down, round and round stuff. Couldn't have timed it better.

Mind you, it could have been totally unconnected or maybe they'd claimed a skyflash shot!
