LOOP Features Scottish Aero Club - RAF LeucharsTHREE microlights from the Scottish Aero Club, based at Perth, celebrated the 90th anniversary of the RAF's 56 (Reserve) Squadron at RAF Leuchars earlier this summer.Dave Martin, Bill Davis and Stuart McLean were invited to the birthday bash and enjoyed an air display, including Jet Provosts, Hawks, F16s and Tornados. Dave told LOOP, "Of particular interest was a display by an SE-5, a WW1 biplane and the first aircraft used by the squadron back in 1916. This was closely followed by a simulated dogfight between a Spitfire and a Hurricane. "The final event was a ground race between a 1956 Chevy Hotrod and a Tornado. The Chevy won, but had to be towed back in with a blown engine, whereas the Tornado took off, did a circuit, and returned in totally serviceable condition," he continued. A two-course dinner and entertainment from a live band rounded up the celebrations, followed by a hog roast at midnight. W: www.scottishaeroclub.org.uk |                      | ||||||
