Anyone recognise this zap?

Different sort of long shot, and admittedly esoteric:
Did any of the Jags that went to Red Flag in the early 80s have a spot of bother on the way, and receive help from Eastern Airlines? T3 might then be a terminal somewhere…

Sorry I cannot help, I was only on front line Jag Squadrons, so never got involved with the 2nd line side of things, I don’t recognise it though.

No answers on the other forum….

an enigma wrapped in a riddle surrounded by a mystery it would seem….

Eastern could suggest Coltishall ????

Very long shot but is it an ex Indian Airframe??

I asked two chaps that worked on Jags at St Athan (as well as other places) and they are of the opinion that the zap wouldn’t have been applied there or during major/minor servicing. Most likely applied by an Aircraft Servicing Flight somewhere, and not necessarily by a Jaguar unit.
This seems to go with what 12Jaguar says above.

I wouldn’t have thought it would be applied while with the tech school, but others here may know better.

Sorry, not very helpful!

Funnily enough I was on Team 3 of the Jag maintenance Sqn (1 AMS) at Abingdon, but we never put any zaps on like that. Looks to be locally applied as I wouldn’t expect that to be allowed on any of our jets leaving Major/Minor* 🙂

Thanks, I await developements.

Will ask around for you today, many of the old Jag hands are still here.
Purely as a guess, I would think it was somthing like Team 3 of the Jaguar maintenance group.

Put a request on an other forum which may give an answer..
