XL164, Handley-Page HP-80 Victor K2, Royal Air Force, on static display at Woodford Air Show, some time in the 1990s.
A lot of people, mostly Americans, seem to think this is an obscure, secretive Russian prototype, even though it served with the RAF for decades.

C-8, Fokker F-27-300M TroopShip, KLU RoyalNetherlands Air Force, performing a Khe Sanh Approach during it's display routine at the annual Woodford Air Show, 24th June 1995.
The Khe Sanh approach was a tactical approach technique developed during the Vietnam war to allow cargo planes to access airfields that were surrounded by enemy troops, flying as high as possible then diving towards the runway at the last second.
This was later re-named as the "Sarajevo Approach" and used by Allied forces in the former-Yugoslavia, particularly the beleaguered city of Sarajevo, including by the Dutch Air Force, which was why it was a constant in their air displays.
