Jaguar GR.3A XZ117 at Cosford Airshow, 11th June 2023; Jake Wallace
XZ117 first flew on 29th April 1975 and entered service with 41 Squadron the next month, coded E. By 1994 she had moved to 54 Squadron at RAF Coltishall, coded GG, and then onward to 6 Squadron (coded EP) by 1999.
She was one of the more well photographed jets as she was selected to be the 16 Squadron display jet for the 2004 season, wearing a smart black tail fin. She returned to her original squadron 41, in mid 2005, coded FB, but ended her flying career with 6 Squadron coded ES.
She flew into Cosford for ground instructional duties in mid 2007 and has been there ever since.
