I love the Lightning!!!! :-love In the early eighties the RAF would display a Vulcan at the Strategic Air Command open house/airshow at Offutt AFB in Omaha and it was one of my main reasons to go to the airshow. The year that a Lightning demo was flown was a great highlight for us! A friend of ours came along and asked why "the RAF airplanes are so much better than ours?".... :)
