For the censored soundtrack - see Muse 'resistance' but the jet sound at the end is pure censorship - it was haunting - and I hope it will haunt this UK administration of idiots and cretins for many years to come :)
well i emailed no. 10 again - not that they listen - even sent them the link to this so that when we need the Harriers in anger [again] they can look back at the moment when, they could have, but didn't, demonstrate any foresight whatsoever. ... I'm just fuming !!!!
Absolutely, I came out the RAF nearly 3 years ago to work on Dominies at Cranwell, found out this week that they will now be scrapped at the end of January.
The Harriers have been at RAF Cottesmore since 1999, when 3(f) SQN & IV(AC) returned from Germany. 1(f)SQN was moved to Cottesmore about 8 years ago leaving 20(R) SQN at Wittering. Recently with the disbanding of 20(R), IV(AC) was renamed IV(R) and replaced the Harriers at Wittering.
Thanks for the explanation, i knew the harriers had been at cotesmoret as well as wittering but i guess with my brother leaving there last year i hadnt really thought anymore about it when i think harriers i think wittering i guess i always will
I still can't believe they are gone! My brother, my brother in law and my dad have all worked with harriers I spent the first few years of my life at wittering. It will always be my favourite aircraft and I will always feel a bit sad this wasnt done from wittering...does anyone know why they moved to cott last week? I dont understand it but I hope there was a good reason.
fuck you copy right wankers
