12 Sqn Tornado 2014 Disbandment names

Post by Bluetail » Wed Apr 22, 2020 6:20 pm

Can anyone point me to a link where I can find out all the names that were put on the final group of Tornado GR4s of No 12 Sqn as part of their disbandment in 2014. Several aircraft had Sqn bar plates applied to the battery compartment with the names of specific aircraft and names of personnel.

So far I have tracked down the following;

ZA395 had the special tail markings with "Leads the Field" and 1915--2014
ZA395 1915—2014 and Sqn OC & Execs names
ZA541-034 "Mini the Moocher’ Maximum Effort" Lancaster LM509 PH-M
ZG712-122 "Blitz ‘em Blondie" Lancaster GZ-B


Many thanks in advance.

Here's the only mention of schemes I can find .

MAR 4/2014

12 Sq Tornado GRA.4

ZA393/008 has been painted with a special 12 Sqn disbandment colour scheme on the tail which is green/white and black with 12 Sqn Fox in the centre and 1915-2014 in white.
