XR 484 was not on the strength of 110 Sqn at the time the picture was taken. I was the Squadron's maintenance test pilot so I would know from my log book. As far as I can zoom in it is an XD number and that makes it XD183, the only XD we had.
However;-------- The picture is taken from 103 Sqn's hangar and 110 sqn looks as if it is a weekend or stand down so it is possible that it is a picture of a 103 Squadrons aircraft taken outside their hangar. The problem is to ascertain whether the flash on th tail is a; 110 Sqn Rampant Lion or b :103 Sqn Black Swan.
A Black swan means that I do not know which one it is.
