EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, the mighty RAF Tornado GR4 aircraft make a triumphant return to their base at RAF Marham in Norfolk. After their crucial participation in Operation Ellamy in 2011, missions have finally come to an end on October 31st, allowing these remarkable machines and skilled engineers to reunite with their home soil. During the operation, these exceptional Tornado aircraft flew over Libya for more than 1400 sorties, accumulating an astonishing total of over 7,000 hours airborne. The dedication and hard work of the crew and engineers ensured that these jets provided vital reconnaissance and armed capabilities essential for the success of the campaign. As they touch down on familiar ground once again, this image serves as a testament to the unwavering commitment of our Royal Air Force personnel. These brave men and women tirelessly defended our skies with precision and valor throughout Operation Ellamy. The significance of this moment cannot be understated; it marks not only a successful mission but also a safe return home for all involved. The RAF Tornado GR4 aircraft stand tall as symbols of strength and resilience while reminding us all of the immense power behind unified efforts towards peacekeeping operations like Operation Ellamy. This extraordinary photograph was captured by SAC Andy Masson - a true artist who has beautifully immortalized this historic event through his lens.
