Freshly marked up in 1 Squadron markings, this Typhoon also sports wasp nose art on both sides of the fuselage just below the cockpit. The wasp represents a similar marking carried on Pilot Officer A V Clowes' Hawker Hurricane during the Battle of Britain, each stripe representing an enemy aircraft which he had shot down. This particular Typhoon is the personal mount of the current 1 Squadron boss, Wing Commander Mark Flewin.
