Photo Comment

First flown on 25 September 1986, delivered to the RAF on 30 October 1986, this F3 was involved in a mid-air collision, slightly damaged and rebuilt for operational service again. Through the years, the Tornado then served through the years nearly all RAF F3 squadrons and was eventually stored at Leuchars in December 2008. It was moved to Leeming by late January 2009 and fully stripped. The future was not bright anymore for this aircraft, it was moved to the scrapyard and was demolished by mid October 2010.
