Evening
Is there anyone out there who can help me?
I’m looking for photos of Gannet AEW-3 XL500, which were taken during her service carrier.
I would especially like to have the one of when she carried the “Red Dragon” on the tail. This denoted the fact that this aircraft was used to give Prince Charles a series of AEW sorties, when the aircraft served with 849 Sqn B Flight as R042, at RNAS Lossiemouth in 1973.
Cheers
Freebird
