coolest "name" for aircraft

I've had the joys of helping refuel the red arrows amongst others, my fav being the hawker hurricane, though we didnt really do the refuelling of it. The BBMF has crew do to that.

The red arrows are based at skampton and the bbmf from coningsby, both in lincolnshire

I've also been in the lancaster bomber (not flown though) and it was lovely, but very scary at the same time. It was eery sitting in the rear turret all alone.

The RAF hawk trainers are based in the valley

So you will always see those flying about, we get them here (blackpool) daily practising ILS approachs etc. Mix that in with the eurofighter typhoon flying over every 2 minutes and its pretty annoying sometimes.

GLOBEMASTER

Great name though the plane itself doesn't look as intimidating as it sounds: North American A-5 Vigilante
