The mouth on her looks ferocious.Β But the eye on her looks a little sleepy to me.Β Limitations probably imposed by the location of the IFR probe.

Maybe it's partly because the eye's red in the centre?
Thanks for faving!

It's pretty mean looking, isn't it? I had a a die-cast model of Tornado GR.1 in this scheme with the name 'MiG Eater' and a kill mark. It's probably in a box in my parent's loft...
This is the Gulf War 25th anniversary scheme from last year, but my understanding is that it's staying on the aircraft until retirement in 2019.

It's certainly a great scheme, hope they keep it on.

Not sure, I'd like to track down HMS Queen Elizabeth somewhere outside of Rosyth or Portsmouth (when she gets there), not sure how likely that is though!
Thanks for faving!

If she had not been leaving Rosyth at night then i would probably have been up to see her leave. According to MarineTraffic she is at Invergordon but not sure how accurate that is

That would make sense, I don't think she's leaving the North Sea on this trial. I must watch out for when she's coming back into Rosyth and see if I can get somewhere further up the Firth.
