Fighters are reknowned for putting reheat on when they are landing....:rolleyes:

Was once at a meeting at the airport when a so called 'consultant' asked "How often do they use reverse thrust over Horsforth?"

Hugh will understand, most of the rest of you may have to look at a map - sorry!

Cheers

Not really, reheat is standard for a mis-approach

As always there has to be some utter plant-pot on a ladder. The ladder brigade are the scourge of the AVP at Manchester so standing directly under the centreline of a military airfield speaks volumes....!

Does look very low though.

I wonder how many double-decker buses or high-sided vehicles use that road?
