Great find Hedge :happy2:

Back to Blighty for a bit of Menaceā€¦


An RAF Phantom II in full burner passes between two hangars at an RAF base. There isn't a Rhino-driver alive who didn't love dropping his locomotive-sized Phantom down to the hard deck and pushing the throttles right past the detents


This was taken at Raf Athan and apparently was a regular occurence :laugh:

Hope you dont mind if I add one or two of my own

I am 34yrs/o now but as a nipper I always wanted to be a pilot  - and I really was into jet planes....the Phantom did it for me, the shape of it is unbeatable, something about the louvres around the intakes...

Awesome thread and mucho respect to the guys flying them.

Oh and heres some F15s!

.....'negative ghost rider; the pattern is full.' :grin:

I think the wobbly F4 is an RC plane? And I dont know what happened to the swept wing F15 over the carrier.... :surprised: :sad1:

They do....

When they go wrong they go very wrong, you just don't get these high jinks in the air force any more..... it's a shame but for the best, a German squaddy was decapitated by a C130, in fact I thought that was the video.

I get a better kick out of the brown trouser moments, like the blue angel pictured and there's a cracking vid of a Tiffy at RIAT who got a loop wrong and nearly squared off the bottom! Only liberal application of reheat from both EJ200's saved the aircraft and pilot
