About the comment that the B2 was the scariest aircraft someone had seen.
When I was younger I used to live with the bottom of my garden backing
onto a RAF camp, and they had one airshow there where they had a Vulcan
bomber turn up and do some manoevres. One of these was (and I'm sure it was
pretty illegal as was way too low for flying over a residential area) to stand
on end and go straight up right over where I was standing in my garden. The
noise was HUGE. A big warbird with a loud loud loud cry. It was an amazing
sight.
Incidentally the Red Arrows once shook the house so badly that part of the
inside of our chimney clattered down into the lounge.
Cheers,
Martin
