Here's some pics of 19 Sqn taken at Gutersloh when for one day we had all sixteen of our aircraft there. We flew the formations once, and, surprisingly all landed serviceable, so it was decided to go and fly it again. I was squadron historian at the time and we had pictures of the Squadron 19 with Meteors and Hunters so we wanted to do it with Lightnings. To get the layout right when seen from the ground, I had to lie on the floor with the previous photos held above me, while another plotted out the formation positions from above. I am at the far outside of the 9 and somewhere in the middle of the 16. The T4 was used as 'whipper in' for both.
