These were taken at Tiger Meet RIAT Fairford 1997. Quality is a bit off as hey are old stylle prints scanned in.

This is KC-135E "Sprit Of Camden County", 141st Air Refulings Sqn, 108th Air Refuling Wing, New Jersy ANG, largest Tiger there - You Bet. Can you believe they painted this on for the Tiger Meet only on the understanding they removed it before going back! Killjoy USAF Top Brass!

This aircraft was actually used operationaly in this scheme and thus suffered from exhaust staining on the fin from the Tornados thrust reversing.

Hope you like them.

This aircraft was only allowed to be painted this way as was heading for deep maintenance and was to have the paint stripped.

RAF Puma.

This Helo arrived with no markings and then the crew used pre-cut vinyl to make most of the markings. They had to remove them before leaving. Now that s dedication!

Same thing happened with the tigerpaint before the full paint which was on Riat '07. They had spare engine cowlings and sprayed these in tiger. Just before it departed, they switched covers, and flew away in the dark. and doing in reverse when arriving back so at Benson it was never seen in tiger except for some crew.
