Great shots! Thanks for sharing!

Pure dead brulliant!! Missing Tonkas already...

lovely bits of kit them... beautiful pics too. weather looks like the perfect recipe for evil heat haze.

Great series. Make hay while the sun shines. They won't be around for much linger!

Great stuff

Can't have too many tornados

Runway 01/19 provides much easier parking and closer to the action

Nice shots

Beautiful photos!

Can't believe we're losing these soon. They still seem massively capable and a valuable asset. It's a shame that despite the increasing Russian threat and instability continuing in the Middle East and Africa that the government doesn't have the foresight or ambition to keep at least a couple of squadrons of Tornados. They can certainly do jobs that the F-35 and Typhoon can't at present.

And with them will go the role of fast jet navigator in the RAF.
