I started the watching thinking the lucky ba…rd, Spitfire, Typhoon, now the U2.

Now all I can think is I want to got there. The aircraft pales into insignificance compared to that view. It must be just amazing.

Now my ambition of one day flying at twice the speed of sound off the coast of South Africa now has a trip up there added to it.

ps. dont forget the BBC4 show on now.
