Squadron Leader Mark Long ❤. Resting in peace now up in the blue peaceful skies 😪. Ted this is a very precious video. How special, seeing Mark, as we will remember him, a legend.

[@TedConingsby]

This was such a special day, not long after my flight in Blackjack. My first time meeting Mark

[@lesleyploddypop2950]

You're a superstar Ted.... Everyone is recognising you now 🤩🤩 You'll have your own charity cd launched in time for remembrance day the way you're going!!! 🐻🎶💖

[@TedConingsby]

Awww thank you again Lesley. And it all started with a bridge covered in Teddy Bears… luckily, my boss Nikos, chose not to put me on the bridge and instead admiring our R.A.F. 🧸🇬🇧

Clear Skies BBMF Pilot RIP Mark, NEVER forgotten...

[@debbiebrooks2716]

You will never be forgotten Sir fly forever in that beautiful Spitfire

[@DanielWalker67]

What a backdrop! Hurricane? I believe. Recognised instantly! Ted. See.. the shape of things too come. What a couple of complete grnts for taking some time to talk too fans. Big love too them. Definitely early early times of a fledgling T.C.S channel. See what you fing when you go way back. Lovely.. Nice Ted and Nikos. From 15/6/21 Watched 4/11/23 No:- 596

[@TedConingsby]

Awww I remember this day. This was exactly as you said about the things to come. We had no idea our channel would turn out the way it has. Mark Long is awesome and I believe “Disco” left sadly.

[@DanielWalker67]

​@@TedConingsbyoh that's a shame but sadly natural wastage and retirements happen We need more pilots right now. So short.. sad too RAF lost a guy like him

[@MarkBrooks-y9k]

[@andrewireland7560]

Fantastic video mark long for me is the best typhoon display pilot of all time ✈ Ted and nikos but all the displays have been very different

[@TedConingsby]

Thanks Andrew. This is the only time I met/seen Sqn Ldr Mark Long. Only found out he is Sqn Ldr the other day on the radio 📻 Only Typhoon display I’ve ever seen is Sainty and Paddy.
