I was an airframe techician on 111 Sqdn from 1976-1980 and seeing this film bought some great memories .
I knew a lot of those guys as my Dad's colleagues when he was stationed up in Lossiemouth right at the top of Scotland. Then we moved to Germany. Where things were even more intense. But that's a whole different story.
Interesting comment, Our pilots were taught not to flare the landing in the F4. The ac was designed to land on carrier decks and had a very strong undercarriage. By landing firmly it was possible to quickly shed speed. Conversely the brakes were not too clever and it was necessary to lose some speed as soon as possible before using them (hence the use of the brake shoot). If a flared landing was attempted we would use a heck of a lot of runway before being able to use the brakes.
The good old bad old days...
That brings back some memories. Were you there when the silver F6 Lightning from Wharton turned up. I think I’ve got a photo of it somewhere.
Great post, takes me back a year or two.
Long live the f4
Michael Graydon a fine Station Commander

Ah, yes the good old days when all we had to worry about was a soviet nuclear strike. They were proper bad guys. Still, at least we had some proper, tough looking fighters back then.

0:59 The 'intruder' was in international airspace the whole time.

Yes, but within the NATO assigned UK Air Defence Region - a very different airspace designation for a very different role.

Gee, I guess that's why the interceptors returned with all of the ammunition they left with. In 1960s my father commanded a radar station on Vancouver Island. After an all-night exercise he had two CF-100 interceptors fly out of the rising sun at mast-head height ovet USSR 'fishing trawler'. Not F-4s so they had to fly closer to be rude. Mission was arranged by telephone.
Cringing at the pronunciation of Leuchars.
