I'm pretty sure they have had SR-71's over here. B-1 AKA The Bone would be cool to see.  :smiley:

Nice one Craigy.  :happy2:

I would love to organise a meet at Wellesbourne where XM655 lives. It might be possible to get up close and personal with it.

Pretty sure the Italians got asked politely not to come back to the airshow I work at due to their display, it was wild  :evilgrin:
