Description

The English Electric Lightning entered RAF squadron service in 1960 and continued flying in the interceptor role until 1988. The aircraft's safety record, however, left much to be desired. There was a 6% chance of a pilot experiencing an engine fire and a one in four chance that he would not survive.
