Unusual landing site for a Harrier
Found this whilst looking for a video to post down there - it just goes to show that it really was a unique aircraft.

The Harrier Jump Jet
what a feat of engineering. Conceived at the time when the Transit had just been thought of. What a fucking loss :(

"Viffingly" good
An ace platform that perplexed the Argy Mirage pilots.

Not strictly true
None lost in air-to-air combat, but a total of six Sea Harriers were lost (four to accidents, one to a SAM over Port Stanley, one to ground fire over Goose Green).
No. 1 Sqdn RAF managed to return all their GR3s with their deposits intact.
