The internet was abuzz a couple of weeks ago with a video featuring a former Royal Navy BAe Sea Harrier taxiing around an airfield under its own power. While witnessing such a scene would not be so unusual in the United States, as former U.S. Marine Corps Harrier pilot, Art Nalls, has been operating Sea Harrier FA.2 XZ439 out of his Maryland base since 2007, the Sea Harrier in this video was cruising around an airfield in the United Kingdom. and that was indeed news!
A NEWLY qualified naval airman has just set sail for the first time on HMS Price of Wales. Able Rate Cameron Fallows, from Grangetown, Middlesbrough is a former student at Eston Park School and Middlesbrough College. The 21-year-old said: I wanted to join the Royal Navy to travel the world and meet the people who will be my friends for life. The job will see them joining the £3.2bn aircraft carrier on an intense period of operational training, which will see the vast warship operating with the new F-35B stealth jet as well as helicopters from the Army and RAF.
