"i wont miss the bloody noise they used to make"
Jet noise-the sound of Freedom!
They are amazing planes and getting rid of them is crazy & sad.
I remember as an Air Cadet being at summer camp & really really close to one taking off as I lay in the grass, deafened me completely. The same at air shows-noisy but brilliant. |

" noisy but brilliant."
Exact same thoughts i had when i was a kid.
We were at a local air show shortly after the Falklands conflict had ended and the Harrier display was the main attraction.
Watching a Harrier vertically taking off and landing really was a sight to be seen. |
