In 1993, Carol gave a clearance to take-off and the display Buccaneer departed RAF Woodvale for its penultimate show. Rob decided to video its final display at Cranfield. To this idea, Carol responded "you'll get the best footage from the end of the runway". Mmm.
Slow roll followed by Derry Turn - the Buccaneer looks fantastic.

This wonderful aircraft flew over Newlands Cricket ground in Capetown yesterday. Dear old Bumble AND the rest of the commentary team,couldn't identify it. Of course,I was screaming at the TV,but as I'm an old git not tweeting or twitting,I was powerless to put them right. The bottom line is,there IS a Bucaneer,STILL flying somewhere......FABULOUS!

As the old saying goes, "I was there." Cracking display by a cracking piece of kit. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for posting this. I was living on Park Avenue in Bedford at that time and was at this display. I worked at RAE Bedford in 1983, then Hunting in Ampthill. My favorite aircraft. Tough as nails and ridiculously fast at no feet.

Great Aircraft,was at RAF Lossiemouth 82-85 when 12Sqn and 208sqn flew these,saw the displays these planes did and they were incredible,Love them will never forget them.

My father was with 12/208Sqn at Honnington in the 70s as equipment support and went to Red Flag in 1977 when the Buccs beat the American's with their shinny new F-15s down in the dirt over the Nevada desert. They had Bucc XV160 from 208Sqn painted in a two tone desert scheme with the rear fuselage and airbrake remaining in the green and grey camo. I grey up around Lossie and Kinloss area when my father transferred to NDT at Kinloss to look after the Nimrods but the Buccs were still there and were very admired following Gulf War 1 with the Tornados.

Banana shame extremely few are left airworthy today, served us well nothing like it today with its non fly by wire low level missions. Legend 👍

One of my four favourite aircraft ever, the Buccaneer, the Lightning the Vulcan and the Harrier. All spectacular in their own way. Gone but not forgotten 😁

@rockinroy56 Thanks for your comment, it was a great display wasn't it. It was also great fun standing at the end of the runway and filming the Buccaneer.

@markdennis4257 4 года назад

I thought at just under two minutes it wouldn't be that good a video, but it was lovely stuff!!

I'm just about too young to remember these things, I was but 7 years of age in '93. I've only ever seen them in museums... low, fast and down in the dirt is where they should be, and look perfectly natural doing so. A bit pudgy looking on the ground, they soon shape up in the air. So many aircraft we don't see any more, sadly they're just too expensive. Look at Vulcan, for instance..

@Flyingjetman321 12 лет назад

Should have been there for the departure, I'm sure the people on the end of the runway got more than they were expecting!

@stevies5 11 лет назад

Great video thanks

@militaryaviationtv 2 года назад

The Buccaneer was a great aircraft, and was highly regarded around the world for its low-level strike capability. If not for internal politics, it may well have been used by the American forces...

Beautiful music and last ever display by the buccaneer jet very sad to see it gone

@xoio 5 лет назад

Music = Vangelis

@juliannortheast2271 5 лет назад

Thank you I actually know that is vangelis to a unknown man because I looked music in the video

Fast, low and nowhere to go. If we ever did have to attack the Soviet Navy surface fleet, this old crate would have left them reeling. Superb handling and ability at just feet from the ground.
