I also recall being at the London Ontario airshow in '98 when the theme was "30 Years of Phantoms". He flew in that display. Many countries that used them sent planes.

Hey, I was at the London airshow that year, I spent 1998 with the Canadian Forces Parachute Team (Skyhawks) and performed there.

I remember it being fairly crowded, and it seems to me that there were quite a few flybys by F4s - I am a big fan.

I think I mistyped. 30 years of Phantoms would have been in '88. I went during late 80's to early 90's airshows there. Sometimes we drove up from NJ, sometimes flew commercial, and sometimes flew ourselves in a Piper. My buddy flew one of the F4s up from NJ Air Guard and was in the show and display. I'll never forget the wonderful hospitality of the CAF guys, both active and retired. Much complimentary alcohol after all the flying was done. I swear they all had hollow legs, they could put away the booze like champions. I was never so drunk in my life. (I wasn't driving nor flying)
