Shouldn't it be rotated about 85 deg to a near vertical position though? :lol: :smile:

When watching 74 Sqdn's Mk 1s at Coltishall lift off I could never work out why the mainwheels were almost fuly retracted before the nosewheel came up. Did all Frightenings do that?

This was based on a video I watched of current Lightning operations at Thundercity

Yes, that's quite normal.
