Scrambling A Jet

[JAZZMANB]

I understand the whole concept of it I just dislike how people make it sound so dramatic by insisting on saying jets were scrambled. Bit like ‘rushed’ to hospital. When did an ambulance take a scenic route. Just say jets we’re deployed. Scrambled sounds shit.

Absolutely. We can imagine what happened. It’s not like the raf would have finished their crossword then set off.

My favourite grave stone on Holy island "died accidently"

I love the one in Texas.
Grave stone simply has the name of the bloke that died, the years and the quote

I heard this today about the RAF scrambling a jet to intercept an Easyjet flight that had a bomb scare. The plan was to intercept the flight, in all seriousness what can the RAF jet actually achieve?

Shoot it down before its in a populated zone
