Hi Folks,

There was a 2 seater Jaguar flying in and out of Baldonnel on WEd of last week. Anyone know who's it was - and why it was here?

Cheers,

Scutmunkey,

Didnt hear about that, lots of French Alpha Jets in OK. Best of my knowlage all French & RAF Jags retired. Anyone know if the Empire Test Pilots School or QinetiQ still flying their T.2's.  Think the ETPS stood theirs down last year. Only others with Jags would be Ecuadorian, Indian or Oman.

Hey Scutmunkey

what time was this Jaguar noted at?

For info five Alpha Jets departed between 10 & 11am last Wednesday - were these what you saw?

I am going to go with it being the AlphaJets as they were here and the RAF and FAF Jags are retired, QinetiQ do operate a Jag XX145 painted in the "Rasberry ripple" paintjob.

Qinetiq retired their last Jaguar XX833 in December 2007.
