**DISCLAIMER - I don't actually race a Poseidon in this video. It would be awesome, but I suspect it might win. I'd also trash my plane!**
It's not every day you land up sharing airspace with one of the most technologically advanced aircraft in the Royal Air Force - a Boeing Poseidon P-8! When I initially saw it I wasn't sure what I was looking at, but suffice to say it had probably seen me before it even took off from RAF Leuchars!
This was a great flight, with some spectacular views of the Firth of Forth.

Lovely! That jet would have scared the bejayzus out of me! Apart from the odd scary military plane, we do have the most awesome playground to fly in!!

It was rather unnerving that's for sure!

Sneaky beaky stuff there Graham. 😉. It looked like a really enjoyable flight.

Cheers Giles! Did you see you got a name-check during the interview at the end of the Summer Solstice video?

Your voice sounds so relaxed anyone would think you were on holiday... In the mid 80s I was at RAF Dishforth on a Saturday gliding. We'd seen the BBMF Lancaster fly up the opposite side of the A1 and then though nothing else of it. A short while later I was on an aerotow, when all of a sudden I noticed movement. The Lancaster was flying back down the A1, closer to the airfield, and we were flying over it. I turned around to see the instructor in the back, face glued to the window. Awesome sight.

Was I on holiday then... Oh... I hadn't noticed... lol! I'd love to be in the same space as a Lancaster, what an honour!

No need to worry about the Poseidon.....they could see what you had for breakfast and what colour pants you had on, a long time before you were visual with them!😂
