Coltishall Jag serials, circa 86-89

[Cyberfox]

A long shot, possibly, but would anyone happen to have the time and inclination to list the serials and codes tie-up for 6 squadron’s Jaguars in the mid-late 80s please?

I know they sometimes swapped around, I’m aiming to make a model of one from around 1987ish, and want the serial/code to be accurate.

Thanks in advance to anyone who may share this knowledge!

I can put together a list drawn from the info in 'BAR' for those years, but I can't do so until this evening. Anyone who can post the relevant info earlier, by all means do so!

Can you by any chance post the actual serial of the one you are thinking of making a model of??

Thank you gents, @eagle112 that’s great info!

I haven’t actually decided on a serial yet, I have the Kits World decal set for pretty much any RAF Jaguar, though I’m erring toward an XX reg one.

This is what 'BAR' has from the numerous Coltishall reports throughout 1986-89. Code duplication is as a result of the 'churn' caused by Jags going off to/coming back from the JMU:
