You are correct Kevin - My memory played me wrong - I believe it was Blackbushe and not Dunsfold. It does not say much about their navigation skills though.
It certainly was not Farnborough......we were all on the Colonial club verandah clutching our glasses and wondering where they got to.
Must have been quite interesting in Blackbushe control....
See below extract from pprune forum.
Tee hee: USAF B 52 tasked to make exciting fly past at Farnborough shows superior nav skills and stonks the hell out of Blackbushe.

Happens a lot, apparently. My mate in the Army Air Corps relates an amusing take of a super-ace helicopter display team en route somewhere who call up Duxford and offer to wire the place and please the punters. Go for it, says Duxford, and make it a biggie. Hurtle, roar, zooom, wokka wokka wokka, ker chunka chunka chunka etc.
"How was that, Duxford?"
Pause

Ooops. Tea, no medals.
