    Nice one mate.

    We used to be pretty lucky here when the Tornado squadron was at Leuchars, bit they are long gone now. Still the odd bit of activity.

    Probably one of the greatest things iv'e ever saw Marty was on that " airport bend " Air Force One flying over Arran to land on the airport . could only have been 40 / 45 feet above as it flew over the fence to land on the long runway .
    Speaking of that long runway was a not uncommon sight when I was a youngster to see Concorde flying overhead in Ayr / Prestwick .
