OT: The Ariel Atom video link was sent to me by my son in Vancouver BC.
He also sent me a You Tube link of a C-130 Hercules and an aircraft carrier at sea in 1963. Unfortunately, the Hercules & Aircraft Carrier You Tube video is now: "This video has been removed due to terms of use violation."
Now, I know that this is not a Top Gear clip… BUT… The story is well documented even though the videos at the end are quite small.
