Re: Tornado GR4 Fleet

Seen a shot of MacRobert's Reply, ZD741, through Tebay (M6) today on FB. Not heard of this airframe for a while. Does anyone have further details of where it's operating from?

HMS Hermes/INS Viraat to be decomissioned

Set for decommission in 2016. Looks like the end for the Harriers too. One of the options is to use her for target practice. Wish she could be a museum over here. :(
