Celebrating its 50th year of faithful service in 2012, the Vickers VC10 has proved to be one of the most enduring types in British aviation. The final role for these elegant veterans has been to provide mid-air refueling for the RAF, as typified here by C.1K XV106 'W' of 101 Sqn, Brize Norton. Retirement is planned for March 2013 for the final few serving aircraft, closing a significant chapter in the history of jet age.

Tribute to the VC10 by Ivan Berryman. 		Tristar KC1 ZD952 of No.216 Sqn, VC10 KMk4 ZD235 of No.101 Sqn and VC10 CMk1K XV108 of No.10 Sqn. Together, these squadrons provide global Air Transport and Air-to-Air Refuelling support for the RAF from their base at RAF Brize Norton. <br><br>RAF Brize Norton is proud of its long association with British Airways, who have kindly sponsored this painting. Some 20 RAF Brize Norton aircraft saw previous service with British Airways. VC10 ZD235 served as G-ASGG and Tristar ZD952 as G-BFCE.

Global Support by Robert Tomlin.		 Designed originally by Vickers-Armstrongs (Aircraft) Ltd, the prototype VC.10 took to the air for the first time from Brooklands, near Weybridge, in Surrey in 1962. One of only a few airliners ever to feature the tail 'quad' engine arrangement, the VC.10 became the mainstay of British Overseas Airways Corporation's operations worldwide, the type continuing to serve when Britain's major airlines merged to become British Airways. Many airframes continued their long service career with the Royal Air Force as air-to-air re-fuelling tankers well into the 21st Century, the type finally being retired in September 2013.
