Yes, as you politely point out the question can be read both ways.
How I managed to simultaneously post it here and on the BBC thread I don't know but given the theme of that thread I thought I should 'make it relevant'
As you have probably gathered its an answer to another thread how it got posted on two seperate ones I don't know because it is on the one it is meant to be.
However it has got me thinking that I assumed the aircraft in question was transiting left to right which some JB readers may feel is unfairly biased against people who naturally assume the aircraft in question is flying from right to left. As the aircraft in question is a RAF Tornado and therefore publicly funded they may also feel that it shouldnt become involved in any such discussion anyway
