Mcdonnel Douglas FGR2 Phantom

Pretty much impossible to get a clear shot of her normally, and even more so now that the RAF Museum are moving so many exhibits around, XV424 is displayed with a nice selection of stores and has steps so you can get a look at the cockpit. In good condition, she looks like she was wheeled in yesterday. She served with 6, 29, 54, 56, 92 and 111 Squadrons plus 228 OCU. In 1979 she was painted in a special scheme to mark the anniversary of Alcock & Brown's crossing of the Atlantic, and made a record-breaking commemorative dash across the Atlantic on the 21st of June that year
