Why would there be any irony there? It depends on what the ODM says the stopping distance is in the intended and possible emergency conditions. There is no way that a Tornado can be stopped 'brakes...

This is key. To my mind the Tornado Force have handled this whole episode exquisitely. Events for public consumption followed by an immaculate parade, flypast and dinner to round off the aircraft’s...

How do you come to that conclusion?

They are still flying this week, so those aircrew are now current until beyond 31 March. There comes a point when no more routine flying is needed to sustain...

Nice videos... in the first, looks like the two jets in the spine of the diamond are sitting forward, but you can't tell that in the external views - presumably they've been whipped there? As with...

I asked exactly this of those 'in the know' and it's to do with Marham being on its short runway while the main is resurfaced. The runway multiple occupancy rules have been tightened, which makes...

Agree with this.

Agree with this also... but unaddressed, those videos could undermine exactly that sentiment. I feel that raising the point was justified precisely to show that a professional...

For a good couple of years before the general ban on the Mach Loop, the Tornado Force had been clamping down on unprofessional flying of the type seen in those videos. There was a small handful of...

No, he isn't. Yesterday's performance was filmed by hundreds of people from all sorts of angles and most of them are going to look 'wrong' somehow. Not only did the Tornados put in a highly polished...

Indeed. The best squadrons I’ve served on have been the ones where air and ground crews collectively refer to themselves as “we”. Those where it’s “them” and “us” have been sh*t places to work, with...

For CAS and the Marham staish to fly together, the staish would have to have qualified as a rear-seat pilot with less than two years on the jet, which would be highly unusual for a full-time squadron...

The Defence-wide formation flypast limits are available for all to read in their miserableness: 500ft minimum height and 20 degrees angle of bank. Google RA2335. Any lower or steeper (or indeed a...
