Best watched with the volume cranked up. And that landing!!......




We were staying in a B&B up North a good few years ago now. Miles from anywhere, when we suddenly heard a commotion. Looked up, and there was a group of A10's buzzing around. Absolutely amazing, not the fastest, nowhere near the loudest. But the manoeuvres they were pulling were absolutely fantastic. Never seen 'planes turn and swoop like they did. Big flaps help ....
Lived near plenty of air force bases in my life from the '70s onwards....there's nothing like a pilot in a Phantom pointing the planes nose to the sky and hitting the afterburners when you are pretty much directly below.
Army Golf Club?Great footage Rob!
I used to go to a society day at a golf course right next to Farnborough Airport. The day was always when the Airshow was on.
We saw the Delta bomber, red arrows, the Airbus amongst others, but the star of the show was the European Jet Fighter. I've never heard anything so loud, it was absolutely awesome to watch!
The golf was pretty good too!
No, don't think so, but can't remember the name. Unless of course it was known locally as that.Army Golf Club?

Yes of course, I remember now. Sadly it is closed, really enjoyed playing there. ?It was Southwood GC Chris now closed down I believe.
I saw a beautiful Sash Plane for sale at a local Flea Market. I'm never going to make a sash window but it was hard to leave.Love a Stanley No.4.
