It's absolutely a fast jet pilot's prerogative to stick the jet on the numbers; it's the airfield's responsibility to ensure it's safe to do so. Never been convinced that the setup at Waddington is...

On the subject of the USMC, it will be interesting to see whether ownership of a shiny fleet of F35B forces them to contribute more to the ATO outside the Marine AO in any future operation. During...

The notion that Spain and/or Greece might spend $bns on a 5th-gen stealth fighter, with no prospect of significant workshare, is utterly implausible given the state of both nations' finances now and...
