Best formation I've ever seen
« 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.
