Nothing controversial on the warbirds front, just the extremely nice and rare sight on video of a 4-ship Lightning display from the Thunder City guys.........

........filmed last weekend in South Africa. Must be the first time there has been a formation display since the Lightning's farewell formation flypast to the Lincolnshire RAF stations? Oh to have the £10K necessary to enjoy today's version of the "Lightning Experience".....
Oh and another aviation milestone passed, with the final F-14 Tomcat flight in the service of the US Navy late last week too.....

Finally, for those who want to see some really low flying, here's the French Air Force at play (couldn't possibly post anything from our chaps - we just don't do that sort of thing......at least in the UK)
