Return of the Cold War?

This article caught my eye mainly for the ominous looking photograph of the Russians playing war games over the North Atlantic. A bit of real excitement for a young Biggles no doubt.

One of the three locations where the Typhoons shown in the photograph are based or will be based when the F3 Tornadoes are retired is at RAF Leuchars, just up the road from where I went to High School in St Andrews. That is also where Tiger Woods flies into when the British Golf Open is played at St Andrews. Not many private jets get to park with multi million dollar airborne deterrents.

Blognor Regis fills in the blanks.

James got me thinking about this with his interesting post on day to day living in the Former Soviet Union.
