I have a deep respect for the pilot who had to withstand the temptation to take the skies :-)

[@CBGSpotter]

Me too must be unreal :)

[@the_once-and-future_king.]

That girl wants to go ballistic.

[@stevecarter8810]

Had one of these do a low pass at an airshow when I was about 8. Whistled past, followed moments later by a roar that knocked me over. What a beast!

[@CBGSpotter]

I'm to young to have seen these beasts flying but I bet!

[@matthewhaste]

the old beast still has got it. she has got it all

[@CBGSpotter]

She sure does, we need one flying. Bloody CAA

[@aviationvideosgraz]

[@CBGSpotter]

Nice :P

[@sgkingly8392]

same i was on the VC-10

[@dominiqueroudier9401]

Fortunately Lightning T5 flies in South Africa 👍but maintenance have a cost😨

[@CBGSpotter]

Since the lighting crashed due to lack of MX work, they have ceased flying I think.

[@dominiqueroudier9401]

ElliotL- CBGSpotter yes Thunder city is closed. Lightning and buccaneer for sale. Watch on you tube about second black T5.ZU-BBD Friendly from South of France BZR-LFMU.

[@PlaneWorldBerlin]

Awesome takeoff at the end of the video :-)

[@CBGSpotter]

Thanks, not quite a take off but a fast taxi taking the aircraft to just bellow V1 then slowing

[@DatPlaneGuy]

Great video, very interesting looking aircraft. No longer flight-worthy? Liked!

[@CBGSpotter]

Thank you. Sadly none of the jets you will see in this series of epic videos are air worthy, financial, fatigue and CAA restrictions all effect the collection of 30 potentially air worthy machines! But regardless its bloomin epic seeing them run, no where else in the world like it!

[@CBGSpotter]

[@AlycidonDeltic]

Is that high up stand you were on for the run normally open to the public?

[@CBGSpotter]

I was on the mound not the cherry picker. The grass mound is open for public access however you will get better shots side on.

[@AlycidonDeltic]

+ElliotL- CBGSpotterHD thanks very much, might be going there this weekend!

[@CBGSpotter]

I'm going :)! Will be on the mound with a large silver tripod :D

[@BigPinkJohn]

I know if you did it would end any flying career and probably end fast taxi runs altogether but as a pilot how DO you resist the temptation to say.....sod it, i'm going for a spin. lol

[@CBGSpotter]

Totally agree!

[@johndavid5618]

Awsome. But deadly. 🤷‍♀️ 🤦‍♀️ Have a look at the history.!!

[@CBGSpotter]

Cheers pal!

[@phantom4E2]

Why they don't fly????

[@CBGSpotter]
