Low Flying under bridges (Updated)
BomberH,
I'm pretty sure it was THE Bay Bridge.
The San Mateo Bridge is too far south and the Golden Gate Bridge is further west for t/o problems from the former Alameda NAS.
Cheers,

PS Who were you attached to?, as a friend of mine was in the Reserves, a Nav. on A3's based there.

Raincheck only just seen your post no 59 about T*** D***** - sad news indeed.
I've already been to 3 mates' funerals this year and it's only bl%%dy February.....
I guess it happens at this time of life.

Ray Hanna and close proximity to hard bits.
I realise its not under a bridge but if you want to see Ray Hanna at his best watch the CD of the first Goodwood Revival meeting when Lord March came onto the Start/Finish straight in the course opening car at about 40 mph to be greeted by Ray coming the other way down the Start/Finish straight between the grandstands at about 20 feet and 250 mph! I believe the CAA said very naughty, don't do it again, ( lovely bit of flying ). Just found a home video on You Tube at Ray Hanna Spitfire Low Pass Goodwood 1998.
