Just popping in briefly from Rotorheads to ask...

Who was it that got to fly the Sea Harrier up against the Saab whatever last night in BBC's Top Gear? Was it as much fun as it looked?

:ok:

Sad to say that I think the saab would have the acceleration to beat any chopper round that track...maybe you could volunteer.

801 Sqn.
Why did the pilot have to stand at the back of the set looking like Darth Vader. Who is this man.
By the way have a look at the topgear web site, in particular the Vr claims for a B747
Top Gear (http://www.bbc.co.uk/topgear/prog23/saab.shtml)
Boy those 74's can go

I hear that there was also a Chinook whopping around the airfield that same day, so maybe they have another race to air soon.
