Swing wing Jag is a bit better than "Mother Riley's Cardboard Airplane" that I used to hear it called, when Jaguar was a "bionic budgie".
Both good machines from what I've seen/heard. Have a nice '78 vintage yellow toolbox decal for Panavia Tornado I acquired in my youth.
In '74/75?, BBC Midweek did a feature on MRCA/Tornado, and the aircraft it was to replace- Vulcan, Bucc, Lightning, Phantom. Anyone know if it has shown up on Youtube??

the last ones we painted before they closed the best-located base in Germany
The tiger-scheme won the best painted jet award at RIAT 2011 too, sadly flown in by a monster crew!
