Leuchars airshow mid 90's
Hi all needing help here.I am trying to remember back to the 90s airshows at RAF Leuchars and think if there was ever a F-117 Stealth or was it a B-2 that did a fly past unexpectedly during a airshow.Can anyone confirm this or even know if it did or did not happen.
Many Thanks
Scott

USAF B!-B Lancer
If it helps, there was a 'display' by a B1-B Lancer in '96. It was authorised to do a couple of fly-throughs and as it could only use after-burners in an 'emergency situation' it had to overshoot on several occasions and spiral sky wards with all four burning away - fantastic sight - it certainly tested the car alarms that afternoon. Very flexible crew as several members of ADStAUAS could vouch. now the gang way of a B!-B is a tick I'm unlikely to get.........
It's 'display' was just after the RAF GR1 - talk about pi55ing on your bonfire - at about 1608hrs local.
It was the same year that saw the RAF, French and Italian Aerobatic Display Teams together again at Leuchars.
Just before you accuse me of being a spotter - organising the flying and static display was one of my secondary duties for 95 & 96:-)
