Jet Airways intercept filmed from BA
Unsure why the previous thread was closed however for anyone interested there are reposts of the video if you search YouTube for "jet airways intercept". Exciting stuff.

Very strange post was locked. I can imagine the video was deleted by the pilot after getting alarmed by the number of viewings. Screen shot on this site ;

Presumably because it has nothing to do with BA other than being where the video was shot from

Footage from a BA cockpit unrelated to BA? Even allowing for your edit I would think it is more relevant than many posts

Certainly a possibility.

I assumed that it was by error given that it was closed without commentary/explanation or moved elsewhere.

No, I'd say it's as irrelevant as many posts...

Before you edit this post I can't see a comment. and if you think a post is irrelevant you can either ignore or press the report red button.

I am a bit of an avgeek but I'm afraid I found that vid tedious in the extreme...

The audio of the Latvian intercept by an RAF Eurofighter is far more electrifying,..

Ok, by an ambassador and not a moderator. Comment is still there though.

There's a sad, antagonistic, wind blowing through BAFT recently.

It would be very nice if it stopped.

Why is it, that you meet many a BA pilot out of work, and being friends with a few, but put them in a cockpit and sudden they sound so 1920s British.

I understand it is Speedbird88.

We should all be grateful that European Air Defence is still functional
