Just got back from the RAF Waddington airshow. The New Zealand AF 757-200 did it's display.
Shocked OMG what a display. They threw it around like a fighter. It did more low level manoeuvres than most of the fighters. Including a low level, high speed pass with a 90 deg bank break from the crowd in to a spiral climb then decent to a slow pass.
To finish off it did a zoom climb from 150 ft to at least 10,000 ft at about 75 degs climb.
If you get chance go see it do its stuff.
In my mind it was the best display of the day.

Hats off to the Kiwi's.
