    Those were the days, I still remember the Phantom flying below the Valletta Bastions and take a vertical lift with St Luke's Hospital, those Luftwaffe were mad man. If not mistaken they were grounded on Saturday due to a crash in Germany and they gave an unforgettable show on Sunday ... if the Airshow will get back to Grandharbour would have been a unique show ...

    Yes it was a brilliant show but the airshow must remain to where it belongs the Airport!. Landing and takeoff is part of the show!
