James V Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Mark, I think they have 2 or 3 Raspberry Ripple ones at Cranwell, not sure of the fate of the T2/4 outside though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James V Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Mark, From memory it has been outside on the fire dump since January at least. My mate wanted to liberate it in the back of his garden but I do not think the RAF would like that so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zipper Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 I think its been there since the backend of last year along with the Domine in the fire dump, looks as though its had some parts robbed off it though as quite a bit of chromate showing when I've been past there.

fmansam Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 gents it will not be burned!!!!!!!! i am an ex RAF fireman, for H&S reasons etc etc blah ...real air frames are no longer allowed to be ignited for training purposes... the fire cres have fuel powered burning rigs for this now, it might be used however for deployment, aircrew rescue and other excercises, but should not be burned!!!!!
