    Mach Loop Video Search

    Does anyone know if there are any videos or stills of F111's doing the Mach Loop? I was stationed at Lakenheath from 90-92, saw the first F15's arrive and had the F111's begin to leave when I did. Coincidence? I think not hahaha.

    There are loads of really good video and stills from there but they all seem to date from the 2000's to the present. Was video / photography not permitted then? Was that area not unrestricted for low level flight then? I know they flew North a lot, I assume they trained in that area if it was approved at the time.

    I worked close to the transit area where visiting planes parked and drove all over the flightline, the sections and the ready pad. I saw loads of great planes from all of NATO and beyond. Absolutely no photography was permitted. I saw video of a bus tour right by there on YouTube recently. Times change indeed, oh the pictures I could've had.

    Going from all of the plane spotters, and occasional group of CNDers (always good for a laugh) parked up across the Brandon Road from the end of the runway I would think a few of them would've made their way up there at some point.

    I'd be very grateful if anyone could point me in the right direction. /R/ J.E.C.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.
