Can anyone help me with a query ? I stayed on Fly by camping at Riat ths year and on the sunday the solo F5 pilot overflew the campsite and either went tech or broke the sound barrier ? Can anyone confirm this as I only couted 5 back in and the solo guy was holding well away from the airfield and I dont remember him returning ?

Either way it was awesome ? did you see him return ??

Yes he was dam close too the boom
I was sitting in the back of my people carrier with legs dangling out the back, the fast pass over us, swung my left leg as thou i had been kicked,
i thought it very cool and took me back to years gone by.
Well done that F5 pilot.

That was the highlight of my day , It's given my car several new rattles though

Apparently he did just touch the sound barrier and flattened a fair few tents on one of the campsites too! I don't think he came back either, probably went back to Switzerland PDQ to claim immunity from the CAA!!

Well I was sat on my car at rythmes farm right under him when he flew over and I absolutely S*** my pants haha ! Highlight of the day for me

Trying to see if I can find anything on Youtube.

I was there the whole weekend, and cannot believe I didnt notice, or hear it!

The great thing was from Rhymes that ya never saw it coming,lots of bobbed heads and words like and followed by someones in trouble

I was up at Totterdown and both me and my son saw the compression wave and looked at each other in disbelief at what we had seen, my question is did anyone get any pics of it????
