- Harrier Force West Germany 1980s
- This video shows the harrier force during the cold war of the 1980s on exercise in West Germany,you can see the mobile harrier airfields being built by Royal Engineers from 10 field squadron, using thousands of aluminium planks,the guys who laid the planks called it kicking tin,when the exercise was over it all had to be picked up and each plank checked for damage.Building and clearing the sites did get boring at times,but it was all worth it to see the Harriers on exercise in the fields and forests of West Germany.Sometimes if tin kickers got lucky they got to fly in the two seater T-bird Harriers.The RAF guys called this passenger ride in a Harrier a JOLLY.
