Retro Tornado

ZG752 was painted in the retro camo colours commemorating the types service ahead of its retirement in March 2019. Seen here taxiing out at the RAF Marham enthusiasts day. Picture thanks to & copyright to Richard Flagg.

Great. Now I want a Tornado kit. Doesn't that just look wonderful!

I've had a Revell 1/72 kit in my stash since 2000,  I feel a build coming on.

Now that's a proper scheme for a strike Tornado. 

 

Cheers,

Commemorative Tornado STGB anyone ?

A sight for sore eyes indeed.

 

My interest in modern UK military aviation faded once every aircraft was grey, grey or grey.

 

One question. Where did they find a stock of dark green and dark sea grey paint after all these years. Or did they use a monster size tin of Humbrol?!
