Oh yes 1987 .... that was a great time, a full on airshow at a working international airport. Do you remember the F-111 ? that last pass he made must have been Mach .99 , he was out of sight when the noise arrived .... crazy stuff , and the F-18 going full vertical from a slow high aoa pass... and then the Andover blew a tyre and held everyone up

, ahhh memories
Bloody hell that was almost 30 years ago

I did a Video of it , those North West days again , even ended up on TV ...... again

..... when Rodney Bryan did a documentary about the race and people involved .... caught the Andover blowing its tyre/tire and F-18 debuting , recall the comment "you can drive home faster than this" ...... and those flaming F-111s

Thank you A.B , these old HJG models are not to bad. I only use the externals , and theres a bit of work renaming con fig files to get them going, but worth it.
They have some really nice repaints for the 727's as well , based on the vistaliner model.
Thanks for looking.
