Phantom Friday
Wrong side of the drag-curve with this, (posted 14 March 2019), but are you sure that is XV406 "M"??
In preparation for a Station Open Day, the Sqn had commisioned hundreds of "Squadron Prints" of the subject aircraft, and the plan was to have it on static display in the hangar; punters could then have their photo taken sat in the actual aircraft and buy a Squadron Print as a souvenir. Nice little earner for Sqn funds.
In the event '406 suffered an engine failure the day before the show and had an engine removed. We towed it across to the "sterile" south side of the airfield and hid it in a revetment. Next, an alternative aircraft is put on static display, fablon over its true markings, get the painters in and, voila, XV406 "M" has a doppelganger (on one side only).

Ahh - the Land of Nod, Actually a farmhouse apporx 1k north east of Holme and one of my favourite targets for the rotary students doing spot nav at 100ft (another was the Ellerside Breast Plantation in the Lake District).
But I do miss the sight and sound of the F4 and Lightning these days - and if truth be said the once heard never forgotten sound of the Voodoo!

I thought the Hush House was for Harriers?
He says "Idle" and the A/B goes to full.
"What RPM you got?"
"50%" as the flames blaze out the back.
I suppose these people are now the Aviation Experts for the BBC TV?

Don't tell him.... its all hush hush 
Perhaps he meant "Hash House Harriers"? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_House_Harriers

Phantom run up ramp.
As far as I can remember, the ramp was used because, at Max Mil Power with reheat, the wee beastie was known to vent fuel from the vent pipe under the rudder.
This was why No. 7 tank was locked out and not used.
Buttons in the [starboard wheel well I think] wirelocked shut with something that looked like baling twine.

Reading Post 668 above reminded me of another similar accident I was involved with in the same area. In December 1980 Phantom XV414 crashed about 10 miles north east of Great Yarmouth. The aircraft had been practicing interceptions at night with another Phantom when the crew noticed they had used more fuel than expected. They aborted the sortie and turned to return to Wattisham when the right engine fire warning illuminated and the navigator could see the reflection of a rear fuselage fire in the outer wing panel. The pilot shut down the RH engine but the LH engine fire warning caption then illuminated. The crew ejected and were successfully picked up by a search and rescue helicopter within 30 minutes The aircraft crashed into the sea about 200 yards from a lightship but despite an extensive search no significant wreckage could be found.
Flight Systems at BAe Brough were tasked with providing advice to the Board of Inquiry and we wrote a short report suggesting three possible causes of a major fuel leak and fire. The most probable, we thought was an engine bay fuel feed pipe had fractured or chafed. The bellows of the pipe connecting to the engine backing pump was particularly prone to damage due to chafing from the covering braiding and pressure pulsations in the system when reheat was selected. A second possibility was a fuel pipe on the engine had failed. One of the pipes, I can't remember which, was prone to fatigue failure if the engine was allowed to run out of fuel. The third possibility was a fuselage bag tank failure but we thought this was the least likely as we would have expected it to be progressive and picked up early as a result of fuel leaking from the tank bay drains. The report went off to the B of I and we heard no more for several months.
About 7 months later a local fisherman located the wreckage and, rumour had it, approached MoD and said you give me ŁX000 and I will give you back the remains of your aircraft. A fair proportion of the wreckage was recovered and dumped in a hangar at RAF Wattisham. I was advised by my boss at the time that an RAF engineering officer was convinced the cause of the accident was a fuselage tank failure. I seem to remember the RAF engineer was called Bob Jones but I can't remember his rank and I never met him. I was asked to go down to Wattisham and have a look at the remains of the aircraft and spent a couple of weeks in the hangar trying to piece together a picture of what happened. I had never done anything like this before but I basically drew out a chalk centreline down the hangar floor, marked out fuselage stations and buttock lines and started looking for bits in the centre and rear fuselage and laying them out in the approximately correct locations. The local BAe rep, who I think would have been Jock Shepherd provided assistance with access to tech pubs and drawings A pretty clear picture emerged in that there were no signs of fire around the front of the engine bay where the suspect feed pipes were placed. However there was clear evidence of a fire in the vented compartment under the tank floors and above the engine bay. I can't remember where the fire appeared to have started but it was probably under tanks 5 or 6. It looked like Bob Jones, if that was his name, was correct. The tank sidewall had probably cracked as a result of fatigue induced by pressure variations in the tank, this had cut or chafed through the rubber bag tank and fuel had leaked in large quantities down into the engine bay. The vented cavity under the tank floors should have been sealed to prevent fuel leaking down this path but it looked like it had found a way through and been ignited by a hot surface on the engine or possibly use of reheat.
Subsequently a mod programme was introduced to fit a liner in the tank bays to protect the bag tanks in the event of cracks developing in the tank structure.
One of the engines in the hangar stank to high heaven as a result of a large crab which had died, lodged up against the front of the LP compressor. I have another souvenir of the incident, although I cant put my hands on it at present. I had to take a colour blindness test to be permitted to drive on the airfield. This was successful and I was presented with a chit, by a probably dyslexic RAF corporal, that said Gareth Jones of British Earospace is approved to drive on Wattisham airfield. I also still have the photos, a selection of which are shown below. I never found out how much the fisherman was paid.

However, since the fatal crash of their B-17G last October, I'm not sure whether the F-4, or their F100 and A-4 have been flown, and certainly not for paid flights, with their FAA exemption being withdrawn, and not likely to be reinstated without some drastic changes, or maybe never with the likely lawsuits coming in their direction once the report is out.

Found these going through a box of old photos from my youth and thought I would scan for a Friday - apologies for the quality. Mostly STCAAME visitors with a10TRW roller thrown in. Further apologies to 23, 29, 43 and 64/228OCU.
