Sublime Moment

Just wanted to share this.

Delighted to be given a clearance at 2600' overhead Boscombe Down yesterday, the cream on the cake was watching a black Tornnado take off westwards below me, haul around left and blast off into the danger area.....and then I lost him

And then I'm convinced a Chinook was trying to get on my tail as I approached Reading!!! Lost him too....


Great fun!

lol nice,
I'd be quite happy for military a/c to practice intercepting on the a/c i was flying. As long as they kept it safe, it would be good practice on everyones part.

Having a stick instead of a yoke has really gone to your head, Doc. Nice one.

You seemed to have the best of the weather, anyway.

Fingers crossed for Caernarfon on Sat / Sun.
