Another classic going to the scrapyard! 
Oh well, at least it gave the Nay 41 years solid service.
Nothing but admiration for those pilots after viewing this.

That film highlights well what RN pilots have to put up with on a regular basis Not often you get Leuchars pitching like that

Gents , luckily I was on the ground for the last leg of their flypast day .
Compton Abbas EGHA - Yeovilton EGDY , a grey day for a grey lady .
Last Lynx Leg 1 . Inbound to Compton from the East
Last Lynx Leg 2 . Westbound past Compton .
Patio , Restaurant , Car park , Verges , all packed . 5 mins later as the Gems faded to the West , Compton a ghost town , flying over for the day , lowering cloud and mizzle blowing in on the strengthening , wild , West wind . A grey Navy day to say farewell and thanks .
Our Ops ' gurl ' , embarrassed herself ... She was on the phone as 'Lynx formation' signed off ......... So a very quick reply ..
'' Thanks for the flyby , Hope to see you again soon '' ! .............. If Navy read this ...She blushed .
