According to the notes, the flight captain flew a 707 under the Tagus Bridge in the early '60's. I had to use GIS to find a pic of the Tagus Bridge. Holy shit.

2 3 x Belgian Air Force Dornier Alpha Jet at some airshow or other, I don't know when. Jesus Christ, the third plane:

...more Harrier clips, this time with a lot of technical detail from a test pilot. I saw a Harrier doing hovering manoeuvres at Dunsfold airshow in 1985, and it was the loudest noise I've ever heard, basically a wall of noise repeatedly hitting the crowd.

I thought this was fake, but it seems not. Air Zimbabwe 707, Charles Prince Airport, Harare, on Sunday, May 9, 1993, apparently:
