Great video, so thanks for sharing
I'd certainly have no problem staying slim in that job as I'd be losing every meal all over my lap :)

Awsome Tim great to see from your perspective - I know most of those routes been down there a few times just to watch jets at low level
Got to say though as agile as the Hawk is my favourite is still the Tornado that crackle just make the hairs on your neck stand up :bowdown: shame there going
The closest i'll ever get to a similar experience was a blast on the Tornado flight sim at RAF Leuchars LOL the pilots were impressed when I blasted up the firth estuary then looped the fourth bridge haha must be all the PC gaming I did when I was a kid
Fast Cars are Great but Fast Jets are beyond extreme - remember when Clarkson went up in that F15 lol he was throwing up everywhere :mrgreen:

Don't know if you were there Tim but the best air display I have ever witnessed was the Mig 29 at RIAT in 2006

That's awesome - I'm trying to get to RIAT too this year. Filming out of the front of the Hawk T2 is proving to be a very complicated affair!
