Thought you all might like to see this photo, taken by a 32TRS RF-4, recently donated to the ARG Archive at Alconbury:



The time period of the photo is 1969-72, so could just cover the Battle of Britain movie filming, but I must admit when I found it while going through a bundle of practice target photos it was a bit of a "Final Countdown (1980)" moment...

All the best,
PB

"Help yourselves, everybody...there's no fighter escort." The pic was probably takn during the filming of the sequence that starts at about the six-minute mark of this clip.

Either that, or the RF-4 flew through the same time warp as the commercial airliner inthat old Twilight Zone episode...

Cool pic either way!
