Welcome Max!
I'm just barely out of the "newbie" category here in RR, but a long time scanner/aviation enthusiast since the very early 90's.
I'm one of the Canadian members here on RR. Have attended many airshows in and around southern Ontario. In the early 80'saw the SR71 Blackbird fly in to the Toronto (C.N.E.) airshow from California, the BA Concorde fly into Oshkosh in the mid 90's and a B1 at the London, (Ontario) show. At great experience of mine was seeing two F-111's taking off (almost side by side) at Pease ANG in New Hampshire, USA.

I follow a few people covering the Mach Loop and Coningsby on YouTube.
Like you, I love the military jets. Watched a bit of RIAT 2025 last year on YT. What a show!
The "other" Lancaster Bomber does trips around our airspace frequently during the warmer months.
The other members here on RR have been very friendly and helpful in the short time that I've been here.
Have great night!
