Jim, when you next comming to Gib?
Si picha, I'll make my way there straight away. Keep a seat for me!
They include a tarmac 'line-up' of many of the aircraft that
participated and an amazing shot of a Tornado making a spectacular
swerve just abvoe the frontier! The photographer amusingly added a
caption alluding to the possibility that the Tornado was about to
resolve the border queues once and for all! :)

There's also a couple of fascinating pics, one of the first ever woman
to stand guard outside The Convent... courtesy of the female contingent
of the RAF Regiment. One or two very pretty ones too! The pics were
taken during the Mounting of the Guard at the start of the RAF
Community day yesterday. These can be seen here:
