My dad remembers being at MK Bowl and a Hercules flying over very low and scaring everyone, but he doesn't remember much else about it. Does anyone have any idea what event this would've been and when? Apparently I was there, but too young to remember so it would've been between 1977 and the early 80s.

Thanks,
Oz

Just aw ild guess but might have been the RAF Falcons parachute team. The Herc usually did a low pass as the team saluted the crowd. I remember at an "off airfield site" and the low pass always seem more impressive as there is not the normal display line.
