When the British government decided cuts to RAF funding in 1968
and not to celebrate at all the RAF’s 50th anniversary of the skies
Flight Lieutenant Alan Pollock became angry and protested that
saying that would not be good enough for the Royal Air Force
so in his RAF way he decided to tell the government to sod off
and he decided that it would very illegal and fitting to protest
by flying his Hawker Hunter jet fighter through Tower bridge
for which he was promptly arrested, scolded and respected.
