Mid '70s RAF- not just Phantoms but everything; it don't get much better! :drool:
It's such a shame that later machines (F3s, Typhoons) have never had the pleasure of being camo'd...

Indeed, quite possibly my favourite RAF scheme on anything ever. Just gorgeous.

The base commander's jet c. 1987 - RAF grey, with the black spine and solid black tail and oversized 111sqn logo... ooft.

I'm getting all hot and bothered just thinking about it... :oops:
