Tornado GR4 Fleet General Info

[Reptile 1]

Depending on the work that's required as Special Dispensation was required to get it to Marham only time will tell if she will re-appear again

042 was towed from the BAE side to the HAS site around lunchtime, shortly after a 41 Sqn (no code) marked machine had passed the same way. The latter still had a number of panels missing and shields on the engine intakes and over a panel on the side of the fuselage, so may well have just been going for an engine run.

[Lossie]

Of the three 41(R) Sqn GR4s in the US only one has returned. The two others were reported in Lajes at the beginning of March but haven't seen them reported as returning. Are they u/s still in the Azores/waiting a tanker? Seems a long time stuck in the Azores. Anyone shed any light when they will back in the UK?

I have it on good authority that this was ZG777 (ex- EB-Q).
