Back in July 1968 I was in the Air Training Corps and lucky enough to spend a week ay RAG Guttersloh, Germany.
There were 40 or so of us from Surry Wing squadrons.
The Group photograph was taken in front of one of 19 Squadrons BAC Lightning F2As, XN789, Squadron Letter J
At that time the aircraft was in overall natural metal, very clean and tidy had cannon but didn't appear to have an IFR probe.
I have the 1/48th Airfix Kit and plan to make a model of 789, but because I hate natural metal finishing I would like to know if this A/C carried the dark green upper surface scheme.
Indeed it would be good to know what happened to the aircraft.
Does anyone know any more?
I'll scan the photo and post it here...
