The pilot will thank you for including his first-hand account. Yes, this particular flight was authorised, but unfortunately flights and persons got mixed up in newspapers, resulting in problems... :(

For those interested, the youtube-clip at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlxDpJPo4kM is an extract of

The 707 starts at 15.00, the DC-8 is from 17.05 .

For those wanting to see the Zimbabwan Air Force Hunters, Hawks, Mig-21/Chengdu F-7 , South African Cheetah jets, helicopters and SAAF 707, this is from 19.00 to 29.00

Please DO think about including the 707 pilots' firsthand account when forwarding/copy-ing/email-ing, etcetera ! :idea:
