Last take off RAF Coltishall 2005

[Jackw106]

My first post I spent most of my time flying with RAF/RN . Spent my youth at that station having a great time while on leave from the army
Most of my flying was as a px or jumping out on destination

I don't know how to get a window up using You tube

If that was the last takeoff, presumably the Harrier and the '146 are still there?

Do the two SD hats class as 'take-offs' too? ;)

What was the significance of the hats on the ground ? Being that they were equidistant and both the same way up etc etc ? Markers ?

Strong winds was the cause of the hats being on the ground . It was supposed to be the last take off of the Jaguar from Coltishall. The aircraft with nav problem did a beat up of the station on the Monday sadly I did not get to view this.

When I was at Coltishall the aeroplanes were rather more interesting:
