No.41 Squadron RAF Coltishall, 2005 - With a level of unparalleled force, modern fighter jets and bombers have imposed an unprecedented new regime of power, blazed across the skies from the Falklands Campaign of the early '80s to the ongoing conflict in Iraq. No. 41 Squadron re-equipped with Jaguars, replacing Phantoms in 1977, and the squadron moved to its current home, Coltishall in Norfolk, where it specializes in low-level reconnaissance. From there, the squadron has made numerous operational deployments including both Gulf Wars (Ops Granby and Telic) and Deny Flight (Balkans). This particular Jaguar GR.3 had its tail decorated in a special scheme for display flying by Flt. Lt. Derek Sington during 2005.
