especially when the Lightning stood on its tail and went vertically supersonic!

I was on camp, quite close to the runway at RAF Leuchars when a Phantom was practicing for an airshow.  It come up the runway, inverted, flipped the right way up then stood on it's tail and quickly disappeared vertically into the clouds.  It was beyond loud, the whole place just shook.  Probably contributing to my poor hearing! LOL
