Geoff, that is seriously shit luck but in spite of my love of military aircraft I prefer to keep my feet on the ground.
Paul, thanks so much for your comments. I still think that film is way better than digital (runs for cover).
All the best you guys.

I think this probably gives a real insight into the Shacks relationship to the Lanc . Quite a lot of stuff must have been the same

Lightning F6 at RAF Alconbury by Shaun Haselden, on Flickr
Looking at this bugger there is no wonder that the British create such wonderful hi-fi equipment. Appalling reliability though and a nasty habit of catching fire. Technically outstanding and groundbreaking though with nothing to touch it for decades and then only really outdated due to combat techniques leaving it way behind.
I had the pleasure of watching these at their last RAF base during the 70's and 80's up to their demise. That base was 10 miles down the road from where I lived.
Fantastic memories.
