Heh heh, modern times eh?
I have a very vivid memory of an airshow in the early 70's, when an English Electric Lightning (AKA Frightening), came down the showline at about 100ft and 600mph, lit full burner, pulled up and went through the barrier vertical.
BOOM!
A moment I'll never forget, and because of Mr Health and Safety/Environmental Concern, will never see again.
Ah me, those were the days...am I getting old?
