You'd both probably enjoy Pheonix Sqd by the chap who wrote Vulcan 607. Replace Vulcans with Buccs and Phantoms and British Honduras - as was - and it's a similar tale.

Some cracking tales told.

Those Russians don't do CGI for their (near) disaster movies

I asked the 'tube page to auto-translate from Russky to English. The first line on the first comment is thus (verbatim):

Look I know the Red Arrows are great but I think the Blue Angels get them in the coolness factor, they just seem to do every thing a lot faster
