A very sad day. I think Tomcat Sundown (VF31 stands down) is this month. If only we could buy the Tomcat 21, you could stick your Dave up your @rse.........

As someone fortunate enough to spend a few years flying the mighty Tom on exchange with the USN, I gotta say it's a sad day. Day cat-shots make life worth living! How refreshing that the USN allowed a couple of Lts to fly the last jet off. Can you imagine the amount of rank in the cockpit had it been an RAF occasion?
