I see the Euroblighter is keeping up the RAF tradition of filthy, dirty aeroplanes.....

Back in F4 days, we couldn't believe how immaculate the German Navy F-104s were which came over on NATO exchange, compared to the scruffy things we flew.

I recall Hunters at Brawdy so dirty you could barely see the markings - and that was back when they had white in the roundels.

Why do the UK's aircraft always look so utterly tatty, when compared to anyone else's?
