Tornado Future ?
Tornado Future ?
Does anyone have any idea about weather or not any RAF tornadoes will be retained for flying display or museams once they are de-commisioned, it would be a great shame if this formidable aircraft was only remembered in pictures and videos

I would imagine a few will go to museums, but extremely unlikely that any will remain flying solely for display purposes. The RAF has to watch it's budget, given how little it is given nowadays. Most will, as is normal, be scrapped after their service days are over.

The RAF Museum in Hendon already has a GR1 and an F3 on display.

Its just a damn shane that yes we remember the Spitfire, hurricane and Lanc, and rightly so, its a pity that such a dependable workhose will not be seen flying again aftern such stirling service in Bosmia, Iraq, Afgan and now Iraq again, what a pity !
