MiG-31. Look at the main undercarriage, twin staggered wheels. MiG-25 has a single.

Looks like they are made of gold - goes some way to explain their cost!

The Belgians and Cloggies (Dutch) were pretty awesome at flying the F104, especially the Cloggies.

They still do reheat taxi at bruntingthorpe I think (near Leicester) along with a buccaneer. I was at the Asda sponsored car show a couple of years ago and they both made reheat taxi runs.

Indeed. This was last night apparently. A full on QRA re-enactment with two aircraft.
SO need to do this next year!

You should. I did. It was awesome.
