End of an era as RAF Tornados make final flypast
RAF Tornado jets will mark their retirement from service with a final flypast over RAF Spadeadam in Cumbria next Tuesday.
People across Britain will get a chance to say farewell to the fighter jets when they make a series of flights on February 19, 20, 21.
The Tornado, in service since 1979, was first used in combat during the first Gulf War. The fleet, based at RAF Marham in Norfolk, will be retired from service by the end of March.
