still on the lookout for some famous Buccaneer footage - on exercise in the US desert - Murkin a/c flying low, and then a Bucc flies BENEATH them, kicking up sand =))

sm



At one of the Brunty open days many years ago i spoke to a murkin who had come over to see the Bucc do a run, he was an F1-11 pilot who witnessed the Buccs flying below him.

I don't know mate, i was impressed that he came all the way from Murkin land to see our Bucc drive up and down the runway, was'nt sure if he was spinning a yarn.

Sadly often overlooked within the Avro stable.. :(



First saw one of these on an ATC summer camp, at St Mawgan. Got posted there after joining the RAF and they were still going :)



Would be nice if the one at Coventry got CAA approval - a 3 Avro flyby would be something to see. (In my dreams I guess)

There is a story behind that clip but I can't remember what it now. No doubt someone will know.

Copy n Paste translation from you-toob

A pilot C-130 Hercules decided to show off and few 5 meter/16 feet above ground level not far from a few paratrooper heads. The pilot is suspended from flying and facing a dishonorable discharge from the Swedish Airforce. This was filmed by one of the Paratrooper during a drill and send the tape in to the Swedish News.
