Undergoing post-flight checks after performing a short flying display during the Buccaneer Farewell Display held at the Moray base shortly before the type's retirement from RAF service. Although operated by 208 Squadron, the RAF's last Buccaneer operator, XX899 carried the fox's mask marking of its sister unit, 12 Squadron, which had already converted to the Tornado GR1B.
