I still can't figure out, after tons of pics and FS models, what should be so great about the Chipmunk. For me,it's simply ugly.

Nice shots, but your Tornado F3 is actually a GR4  ;)

flir pods, forward facing RWR (bit near the top of the tail fin), and if your being really picky, the shape of the nose cone  ;) I did my work experiance at BAES Warton, on the hawk and tornado flight lines, the GR4 prototype was there, along with the F3s doing trials with Typhoon. :)

Just to confuse matters, that is an ADV (F2, F3) the item on the upper front of the fin, is not an RWR, but a camera, and is not a standard on RAF F3's  ;)
