...I could hear the 633 Squadron theme music the whole way!!...  :D

Was the horn that sounded occasionally during join up and formation the stall warning??

Low throttle position warning, primarily an audible warning to the pilot to check that the landing gear is down when throttling back to land.

I find the Hornet particularly droolworthy and if I saw one in the flesh I definitely would  :rofl

Reading the reports on the flight characteristics I am reminded of the saying that if it looks right, it is right. Fascinating that this can apply to nature and machines similarly.
