EngO,
Makes you realise what "Combat Mass" we've lost. That F4 16-ship sent shivers down my spine. Maybe the retention of the T1 Typhoons may permit something similar in the future (but would we have the hours to work up such a formation nowadays?).

dctyke,
Think the CH-47 leading the formation was an entirely appropriate example of the RAF's modern "combat force".......

Well done to all those who gave up their time to take part - including the ATC, fire crews and engineers who lost a Saturday as well without the pleasure of flying for HM.
