The Ulster Aviation Society has added an F-4 Phantom jet fighter to its impressive 30-strong aircraft collection. Aviation enthusiasts from Northern Ireland and further afield are sure to flock to its headquarters at the old Maze-Long Kesh site near Maghaberry when the “magnificent beast” arrives later this year. Ray Burrows, chairman of the Ulster Aviation Society, said the two-seat dogfighter, which cost £31,000 to purchase, reached 1,500mph. Source: www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk
