Awesome to see.

Fantastic! I remember one flew over my house when I was very young [ followed by the B.O.B memorial flight going to a nearby airshow ] and I wondered what the hell it was. Of course ever since then I've been fascinated by that aircraft and many others.

My favourite British jets [ including the Vulcan ] are the Hunter, Lightning, Canberra, Vampire and Venom. Beaaauutiful!!!!!!!

A kids book - Harry Potter - is treated with much more respect by Hollywood than the father of science fictions greatest novel - The War of the Worlds!
