Handley Page Victor 55 Squadron Christmas Card by Aviation Artist Chris French FGAvA
A pair of 55 Squadron Handley Page Victor K2s sit on a snowy pan at RAF Marham in the Winter of 1992/3. Still sporting their Op Granby nose art from the Gulf War in 1991, these iconic aircraft would be retired in October 1993 with 55 Sqn being disbanded and the Air-to-Air refuelling role being taken up by Vickers VC10s.
The painting depicts the two Victors that remain in taxiable condition to this day; XM715 and XL231 ('Teasin Tina' and 'Lusty Lindy').
Larger prints are available.
