Norwegian Historic Squadron Vampires to wear RAF markings

Post by Paul_Reflex »

I just saw that Flightline UK are reporting on social media that the Norwegian Vampires will be wearing RAF markings for 2018 to mark the RAF centenary.

It'll be good to see those out and about this year.

That will be great to see.

At this rate its looking likely we will have more civilian aircraft in RAF Colours for 2018 than the RAF themselves will... I am only expecting special tails for them in 2018 with the rest of the aircraft remaining gray.
