As cuts to the RAF and other armed services by the Labour Government were implemented in the late 1960s, Flt Lt Alan R Pollock of No.1 Sqn took it upon himself to stage a very personal protest whilst en route to West Raynham from Tangmere on 5th April 1968. Peeling away from the rest of his flight immediately after take off, Pollock flew low-level to London where he buzzed the Houses of Parliament three times before flying his Hawker Hunter FGA.9 under the upper spans of Tower Bridge. The incident is now part of British aviation folklore, but Pollock was immediately removed from flying duties for his audacity. He will always be recorded in history, however, as the first pilot to fly a jet aircraft <i>through</i> Tower Bridge.

Take it to the Bridge by Ivan Berryman.		 Joined the Royal Air Force in 1950 and completed a tour on the Hawker Hunter. After time as an instructor he became a test pilot, spending 19 years on the Harrier and its variants until retiring in 1983 aged 50. He became a freelance pilot and the first westerner to fly the Russian MiG-29 in 1990. He died in 2018.

Clipped Signature - John Farley.		 Trained as a pilot on the Jet Provost, Gnat and Hunter before joining No.54 Sqn flying the Lightning. He then became an instructor on the Hawk and Gnat, retiring in 1998 from the RAF but then becoming the Training Manager at RAF Valley. He died in 2019.
