I believe Voyager KC3 ZZ330 is also ‘stickered’.

Yes, the Tornado has one.

The BAe 146 is the only plane, for me, that it suits - probably because of being white.

Agree, the white airframe certainly lends itself to this (although I still think overall, it's a pretty poor effort).
Critically observing Pension regulatory activity... :D

Despite it being very underwhelming , in the sense it's marking a centenary of an organisation - I do have the urge to capture all the airframes sporting the sticker.

Need to get out and about a bit more - hopefully won't end up just capturing them at RIAT

Hi Dan :P

IMHO, you have taken a couple of cracking pics there :thumbs:

That sticker still leaves me underwhelmed, though :(

Thanks for posting :thumb:

Have to agree with paddy here. That typhoon image is just wonderful.

I was really hoping this decal was going to be just the beginning of something quite special. Maybe a hawk in red/white scheme, tornado in a gr1 style full wrap camo etc.

Oh what could have been 😒

Think I'm running out of time to catch some of these. Hawks have evaded me and hoped the Chinook would of done RIAT. Haven't seen shots of the tiger puma for months so assume thats disappeared up it's own backside .

Still hopeful of getting the Voyager and C-17

managed a couple of shots at Brize this week.
