Video

That Comet is one beautiful looking aircraft. It sounds great as well. Is it just me, or does anyone else see more than a passing resemblance to a Spitfire in the fuselage shape when viewed in profile?

never get tired of seeing this jet..undefeated..and the IAF pilot landed his Eagle with one wing...what a beast...thx for content..

This is some amazing footage!

"A pilot's dream, a technician's nightmare"....

12.03 Very sad shot... The last days of the italian AF Starfighters. Thanks for the video !

Nice 😍 thanks for this amazing video 👍🏼

F15?

To think the TF33s were an improvement over the J57s… They always needed more runway!

9-40/MM6778 crashed a year later at Leeuwarden air base, i was one of very view people standing next to the runway. We knew they were coming from Florennes to make a fuel stop. Weather was very bad and the pilot made an error, i can still see it happening like it was yesterday, very strange feeling. The pilot survived but was badly injured, never flew jets again.

I remember those coming in here at Mildenhall with TF33 engines, and also with the old J57 screamers in the 70s, used to rattle the windows when they took off.

Honestly think Cox automotive could have put a sliding gate in the fence allowing access to the runway

Excellent footage mate👍

Amazing video mate. How f15Js are operated by the Japan air self defense force.

What was it doing there in 1992? I thought they were withdrawn from service before 1990.

where are the railway videos?

Hi James, nice footage. I enjoyed it. See you in Whelford.

Our old neighbour Steve Gyles flew Buccaneers to Tornadoes and said the Lightning was the best. Sports car of the skys.

Maravilloso, muchas gracias por tú trabajo, siempre lo disfruto mucho

stunning aircraft.... when the UK made some quality gear

Super film😊 Wróciły wspomnienia 👍 Służyłem tam w 1995 jeździłem holownikiem Starem 266 ,później beczką a na końcu woziłem pilotów i techników autobusem , miło wspominam tamten czas pamiętam pierwszy Air Show 95...to co nasi piloci wyczyniali na Migach 21 to Amerykanie tylko mogli pozazdrościć, wspaniały to był czas 👍👍👍 Pozdrawiam

Was the “beer belly” for any particular purpose?

Not like the old days no variety

My pal used to fly with Binbrook Lightning jockeys when he was an SAC at Coningsby - in gliders😂 Makes total sense.

One of my favorite planes. My uncle started on Spits in 43 and finished on EE Lightnings in 62.. Best memory was getting to sit in one when he brought me to an open day.. watched him take off later in afternoon .. one week later .. he had to eject, finishing his fast jet career , aside from age catching up..

I was a 462 on G’s and E’s at George in the mid 80’s. 563rd TFS 37th TFW. Good times.

Видимо переделанный под туристов МИГ-21....

Used to love watching F-111f's flying out of Lakenheath,those 27tfw F-111's look like D models

Is that Phil Wallace in groundcrew or my imagination 🤔

'Their', not " There".

PlanesTV made a programme called "A Warrior Returns" all about XR724's recovery to flight. (I was Chairman of the Lightning Association at the time - white sweatshirt on the right of the lineup). Well done for finding and publishing this video.

It was a great aircraft but, such limited weapons load and low endurance, Lightning sorties were always short and sweet.

Eine dicke MIG-21 ! 😅🤣😂

Crazy to think there’s virtually nothing left of Binbrook as it was then.

I think I know the guy with the video camera. Is you name Howie.

A man's fighter!

Did Shaun film this?

The most exiting aircraft the British aircraft industry ever produced. Typhoon not in the same league in my opinion.Presumably delivered from BAE Warton at the end of Lightning operations

What happened with this particular aircraft?

Was this video recently discovered?

Sad day , I never realised a lightning flew so late .

Wow what a beast! The old saying 'they dont make them like they used to'. Thanks for the upload.

Enjoyed that James. Well documented mate. Wish I’d been there.

Not a mobile phone in site , i loved the Airshows in the 90's , more USAF and Russian jets all displaying together , they all got on with each other as pilots
