flypast IAT 1995 RAF Fairford

[Maurits37]

Hello peeps,

During the IAT95 a few nice fly bys were done by some VC-10s and a formation with 5 Hercules C1/C3s.

Scramble reports says four Harrier GR7s did particpate with the ZD240M and VC-10 ZA149.
I wrote down in that time ZD323/05, ZD470/01,ZD461/WH and ZG860/08 all 1sqn.
Scramble reports says: ZD323/05, ZD462/07, ZD464/09 and ZD461/WH.

For the 5 Hercules I wrote down : XV185, XV195,XV203,XV210, XV212,XV215, XV217. No idea which 5 were actual in the flypast as there should be two spares at the flightline?!

Can anyone confirm the right tie-ups for me please?

thanks in advance!

Hi Maurits, just found this one so had a look in my log book, logged by me there on the 22/7/95 were the following, all in flypasts,
VC-10 ZA149 with Harriers ZD470/01 ZD461/WH
VC-10 ZD240/M with Harriers ZD323/05 ZG860/08
C-130s XV185 XV195 XV203 XV212 XV217
C-130 XV210 this done a TAC demo while XV215 was used by the Falcons parachute team
I also have VC-10s XV103 and ZA143/D recorded as doing a flypast as well

Hope this helps,
