Calling 56(F) Sqn aircrew / Can you help?

Good afternoon,

I wonder if someone might be able to help me? I collect Squadron Print signed lithographs, and I'm looking to collect some signatures for a 56(F) Squadron Print. The print features 3 aircraft, Lightning, Phantom, and the Tornado F3. So ideally I would need

56 Lightning Pilot
56 Phantom Pilot / Nav
56 Tornado Pilot / Nav




If you can help please PM me and I can post the print out to you. All costs are covered, and print tube will be collected from you at your convenience. Many thanks in advance if you're able to help, cheers, Andy.

Looking at the RAF Leuchars heraldic badge on the right, presumably you want Tornado F3 crews from LEU and not CGY?

It would be preferable, but it isn’t imperative.

To really complete the print it would be nice for a Meteor & Hunter pilot signature too! Good luck!

I believe around half a dozen of the Firebirds F1a display team are still around to sign their name. XM 171 (A) was probably the boss' jet. The late, great Dave Seward. Wattisham based, of course, not Leuchars.

I preusme you have tried making contact through the squadron association?

A few years ago I paid my respects at the last resting place of one of 56's, indeed the country's, greatest airmen.
