Sorry to hear about your family bereavement and well done for the excellent pictures of the mighty Tornado.

What were your emotions when you saw and heard these fantastic jets flying overhead.
A day to feel sad or a day to feel proud. I hope it is the latter.

When we read about the so called defeat of IS; whether that is indeed the case or not, we can take great pride in the GR4 role in that. No just the precise airstrikes but the huge amount of information gained by the RapTor reconnaissance pod.
