Re: II (AC) Squadron to be 5th Typhoon Unit
Does get slightly confusing when you can have a Tranche 1 and Tranche 3 Phoon which are both FGR4's?

Re: II (AC) Squadron to be 5th Typhoon Unit
So the future fast jet squadrons perhaps will be 1 - Typhoon - Lossie 2 - Typhoon - Losse 3 - Typhoon - Coningsby 4 R - Hawk - Valley 6 - Typhoon - Lossie 11- Typhoon - Coningsby 17 - Lighnting II - States ???? then perhaps to Coningsby as part of AWC 29 R - Typhoon - Coningsby 41 TES - Typhoon 100 ...

The end of 41 Tonka's

Re: Falklands '84
Really very interesting historic material you have posted. Aside the historical element some cracking photos with the F4's on the line and the tanking shots. Great to see the helos as well. One of the best posts on FC this year. :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: Don't fancy your accommodation at the time!

Re: Twelve Tornados at RAF Marham 30OCT13
Nice shooting Pat, good to me you yesterday. Looks like they were busy again today, a Tonka flashed past me whilst GHing in the Venture this evening. Heading west quite slow.Looks like he had used Cotts as a waypoint.
