Yes it was very sad. Even all these years on i still can't believe that any government would have been so stupid as to do away with our Sea Harrier force :wall:

Come and ours at newark from the outside she's almost complete as the tanks are the last major item to be fitted, and thats taken us 10 years to get this far. Next up is the cockpit suite which could take as long if you look at the time it takes to locate things in the museum world, oh and her number ZA176 the one that landed on the alraigo and caused a diplomatic storm. And if my memory serves me she did fly with 801 but she wears the marks of 800 sqn, if you speak to me nicely I might let you look inside if you catch me there. Back to the thread though these are some of the nicest pictures I've seen in a long time thanks for SHARing :clap:
