After taking off from RAF Valley in Wales I spotted two Migs at 36,000ft so I went to intercept and check them out.

Great shots. Smiley  So... did you shot 'em down?  Or did you go home and just waste those 20mm rounds?

They were into Irish airspace by the time I caught them so I decided they could deal with it. Although the Irish don't appear to have any combat aircraft in their air force!

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"
