The Trembler
'Treble One' (Fighter) Squadron aka 'The Tremblers' marked English Electric (BAC) Lightning F.3 XR713/C outside the LPG's QRA sheds at Bruntingthorpe.
For many years she was preserved up at RAF Leuchars in Fife but with the recent closure of that base she was put up for tender and luckily found a new home with the LPG.
Currently without engines she joins the two other Lightnings currently on charge with the Group plus they had the T.5 nose tucked away in the corner of the Right Hand shed too.
