Repainted and recoded 'XI' for the reactivation ceremony of XI(F) Squadron in March 2007 and still on display with them. The text in the finband says '100 Years 1915 - 2015'. Unfortunately, the paint on the upper surfaces is deteriorating. Hopefully this 1965 Lightning will receive some care again soon.

Even without an exercise going on, this is a common sight at Coningsby. After its first flight in March 2014, the leading Typhoon here spent a long time at Warton, being overhauled and then stored until finally delivered in December 2017.

In 2015 and 2016, this was the one in the extremely good looking commemorative Hawker Hurricane scheme. It has since been reverted to the most standard RAF Typhoon livery and is seen here through the haze, on its way to runway 07.
