LOVE this lady, the modern Mosquito. LONG LIVE THE RAF ! From a yank !

What a handsome brute - and what a VOICE! (3:47 - It's nice that the crew gave you such a genuine and generous wave, too.😁)

When I left school in 1979 the RAF were just receiving them in to Service, to me they were the best Aircraft the RAF have ever had especially the Tornado GR1/GR4, sadly now most have been scrapped (with the exception of museum & BDRT frames) I also saw the last 3 GR4's on the last day off there flying days, Awsum take off power & still today a superb aircraft which really still should be flying over the UK skies.

Like the Harrier they flushed down the toilet when they were still viable.

I love the Tornado - fearsome looking beasts!

They are a great bunch at RAF Conninsby.

Nice little chubby Beast- we love You TORNADO!! You have lethal emanation!!☠️☠️☠️

Such a beatiful aircraft !

I miss seeing the old tonkas

Is that a 41 squadron marker on the tail?. I was serving in 41 , 1956/1957. Does 41 still exist?

Very cool. Wish one would fly over my house like the shuttle did before it hit the museum. Nice!😎

question, where did all the RAF Tonkas go, were they just scrapped or sold off for peanuts?

i wonder how much fuel was wasted just sitting on the ground waiting for take off, how many gallons burned ant informed person tell me

What a sound!

PHENOMINAL Aircraft!!! 🤘💪

If you parked them with the wings folded and the drop tanks full the centre of gravity was far enough aft for them to sit their tail on the ground.

Just love those planes…

Great shot and looks like Rwy 25. Got a wave from both! Are you an Air Marshal? 😁 Well done! 👍🏻

Pretty cool👍

Tornados a beautiful plane

Tonka is still a viable a\c today...criminal getting rid of this fast jet...best in world a what it does.

Looked like a standard Tonker departure to me ...

Actual takeoff is at 6:00 You're welcome

💪🏽💪🏽

fuck me he takes his time doesn't he?

I wish the Red Arrows could do an aerobatic display on this beautiful jet the Tornado

I once saw a six ship 5 sqn F3 take off early one morning at Coningsby about 1991. Took off in pairs, the noise! Then came the peace dividend that hit defence spending as the USSR had collapsed. Goodbye Harrier, Jaguar, Phantom, Nimrod, even ASR helicopter service. Nothing in reserve as airframes are stripped for spares so our serviceable fleet gets smaller and smaller. Trained pilots are "moved on" because they aren't of the right ethnic or gender mix. Watch out Red Arrows and BBMF. Never mind, the present Government don't seem to want to protect our way of life or borders anyway so let's welcome the new Britain.

Absolutely spot on. Couldn't agree more and totally share your grief.

Seek and Distroy. 41SQ

ALl those "unrestricteb climb" "performance launch" "vertical take-off" "fast take-off" (=for saying short take-off) etc. are just plain sick verbiage.

Six minutes of waiting and then a regular take-off. Thumbs down.

Thats six minutes of freedom mister!

Flaps down = normal take off.

Tornado meaning act of god......................

That not a performance takeoff

Abo fares why is it a very bad aircraft?

I wish people would learn how to hold the camera straight

I so loved that aircraft having been the project manager for the Flight Simulators at Rediffusion Flight Simulation and having met and worked with a number of its crews, so sad to see the government and the civil service Blobs get rid of them

6:54 long. throttles up at 6:00. boring waste of time.

muppetrowlf well the RAF never cried about that aircraft so it must have been down to the maintenance engineers of the certain airforces that did
