As Ex XV Groundcrew 'Laarbruch 1984-87'. Any ideas if they are holding a social gathering to commemorate this centenary event?.

I was with XV at Laarbruch 89-91. Best tour, best squadron I served with. Don't know how much longer they will be going though

At least it isn't merely a 'fin-job'. Just about, anyway.

Nice looking painting with the F for Freddie "McRoberts Reply" Stirling in the background.

[Davef68]

That's a cracking painting - are there prints available?

[Valiantone]

Well the last I heard was that XV will survive as the Tornado OCU till 2018, I suppose that depends how long the replacement takes. I still think the OSD should be 2021 just in case.


But I suspect I know what will happen on the next SDSR (aka lets cut more important stuff).....


V1


It flew today btw.

Thought you might have been my old Sooty chief P*** E*** but obviously not

DaveF68 - yes, prints are available (as well as some Squadron Print versions of the Anniversary jet) Go to XVsquadron100.com - HELLO RAFBF benefits from sales of all Anniversary items....good cause doing unsung work for veterans and serving alike.

[Martin the Martian]

Oooh, like that artwork. Might just have to get me one of them...
