Very good. :)

We had two F16s overhead Leeming today, consensus is they were Belgian so maybe I saw some of your chaps (albeit a lot higher!). ;)

This Fouga, MT-35, entered service in 1960. That's 47 years of flying!
Were are the only airforce still using it. It's only used for transportation of senior officers and flight displays.

But all this will end in september. It will be a very sad day.
But it's performing at some airshows this summer. Worth checking out, believe me.

I saw the Fouga display at Biggin Hill & my local Eastbourne show (Airbourne) last season. First time I remember seeing one. Airbourne 2006 was billed as its final appearance but I note it's booked again for this year. We shall see. Airbourne 2007
