Re: Mallet Blow exercises ??

Sorry to jump on this but it may be connected with these exercises.
Does anyone remember C-130's about a dozen of them at a time, going through the Lichfield Corridor ? Similar date, quite a regular occurance.
Also had the sight of A10's very low level along the dove valley.

Re: 3 F/Js, Lichfield corridor

Hi,
the formation was different to UK or US, the sound was different and the colour scheme looked lighter as well.
So i guess it was these.
Many thanks for the reply.
Something different in the L/C
