NA, lowfly (and warplane), have restricted access to their sites in a vain attempt to stop this sort of pic being posted and seen by the wider media. Considering they have been the main cause of this and other such incidents, it's a case of horses and stable doors.

Try the military aircraft forum on airshows.co.uk. Amazing stuff.
Why is this referred to as an incident and treated as though either side had done something wrong? Massive over reaction. Long may our brave lads and lasses practise their low flying skills in our hills and valleys, and long may the devoted spotters climb up into the kuds to photograph them with spectacular results.

For anyone puzzled by the allusion to the 'Mach Loop' it is an RAF training route which starts at Machynlleth and goes through many of the valleys in north Wales, including Dinas Pass.
The guy waving is of course the instructor, not the pilot.
Trust the Jellygraph to get it all wrong yet again!

Just so it's said out loud (so to speak), and so that we educate, as oppose to mock.
Jumpseater, the aircraft in your photo is/was an F15.
An F18 (F/A18) does not have "vertical" fins.
An F18 on the left, and your image (An F15) on the right. (Still a VERY good picture though.

Ta for that, do the F18's not operate out of Lakentheath then? ...
20 minutes and two weeks, no wonder the fishing industries in such a parlous state ...

ooh ooh ooh, lets keep up this chemtrails thing.
I love a good conspiracy - I reckon the truth is some scientist somewhere found that breathing in air contaminated by say OX26 at clse range for any period of time was found to induce certain illnesses - Wibble.
Then said scientist wonders about how much OX 26 is pumped into the atmosphere per day and then gives you your pollution levels.
Tinfoil and armadillo hatted one gets to read about this, looks up and sees a fast moving zepplin with Contrails and thinks they are spraying chemicals to control me.
Put theory on tinterweb and robert is thy mothers brother.
Oh, sh*t. A black omeg...........
