Well, regardless of your opinion on the F111, they have acted as an effective deterrent for this country. I for one will always be grateful for their service, and to the crews that flew them, and especially those that maintained them!

Spelling Sir??
Yeah Buster, you might even have been GRATEFUL that they were GREAT aircraft...........!
Never flew in one but had a good sit in the LHS with a pilot brief after flying our CT4 into Amberley back in 2003 for the squadron's 30th anniversary celebrations of the F111.
Interestingly there are a stack of them still mothballed at Davis-Montham air force base in Tucson Az. Don't think they will ever need to fly again though.
