Title: Best formation I've ever seen
Post by: casper on January 15, 2009, 08:57:52 PM

This was taken at Farnborough 88 and has to be the best formation I've ever seen. It consisted of:

4 Gazzelles
4 Sea Kings
2 Lynx
6 Sea Harriers

Sorry about the poor quality

An old work colleague gave me this many years ago - it was taken back in the late 70s, early 80s when he worked at Yeovilton.

Ah - i see there is one (http://forums.airshows.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=5076) painted in that 'retro' scheme now.The guys on the mainland are hoping it appears on the display circuit this year.
