Great Pics'
I never had the opportunity or some would say skill to take such shots at the home of the Harrier ( and that doesn't mean b****y Wart On ) as a resident photographer...
Re.tail markings, I remember seeing a Tornado at West Freugh labelled ' 2CV ' which seemed about right.
Yes I do remember the take-off if the crew are reading this, flat out skidding rather than climbing with the tailpipes about 6' up, only just made it over the hangars - where people who thought they'd seen everything were beginning to run !
