For those of you that are interested I have been advised that Tornado F.2 ZA267 Formally GIA - GIA.9284M and currently in a RES is to be retained at Marham as a Fire Section Trainer

Cheers

I hope they have to drag it outside occasionally

A.02 R.I.P......you could get into semantics and say it was never a fully production standard jet so not a "F Mk2" per se. 2nd prototype if I remember.

You are all right and you are all wrong
I don't think there is any official designation for this aircraft as tombsRIP eluded; it never entered into RAF service.
At Marham it is designated as an F2 1/2....make of that what you wish....but hopefully this won't turn into a Facebook bun fight

It's still a rare frame for several spotters and it's fate will be of interest to all.

the Mach III publication/Ian Carroll has this as an F.2/*twin stick - A02/018/AB001, and when I 1st logged this A/c - 27.06.1981 - RAF Greenham Common/IAT-81 it was unmarked, which now says to me it must have been one of the three BAe Trials/Development A/c along with ZA254 & ZA283 which I have logged as BAe/A&AEE

It’s now parked outside in one of the drive through fuel barns.

its not a F.2 but as clarified in one of the posts it was the second ADV prototype hence company designation A.02. I remember it still flying at Warton in early 80s. ZA283/A03 was the dedicated Foxhunter "blue circle" radar trials jet; ZA254/A.01 the primary handling/envelope expansion jet. I think A.02 was engines/general systems/armaments testing. Apologies if deemed to have thrown a bun. Cheers

Finally laid eyes on ZA267

It is in the right hand of the three linked flow through hangars as viewed from the eastern end of 24 ( the usual parking spot in the entrance to the field)

It is tail on but can be clearly seen. Couldn't read it off but have been assured it is ZA267

Well Done. AT LAST.!!!

Rumour is that ZA267 departed RAF Marham by road during the last week or two, and may have gone via RAF Shawbury and/or RAF Syerston to a museum. Additional info and comments welcome!
Cheers, TM74

It's at Syerston

Is that it's new home or just passing through? Why has it gone there/for what purpose?

Techno college to be at Syerston
