Back in 90/91 I was stationed at Upper Heyford. We went to an airshow at RAF Mildenhall one weekend. The clouds were very low that day (go figure) so the all of the flying was low level. The coolest part of the show were the B-52 high speed/low level passes. I was amazed at how fast a big aircraft like that could go (and that low)! It would go by and turn around and do it again. Of course it took about 30 minutes to turn around. I'll never forget it.
