Would've been early 80s.

They used to come over so low you could see the pilots heads.

I've been lucky enough to see an SR71 take off. Driving up through Lincolnshire and f**k me if one didn't take off adjacent to the road. Awesome sight and noise. I guess if you lived around Mildenhall it got a bit blasé!
