Turkish Air Force also had several with the last being retired in late March this year,

Retirement colours,

And the Turkish Display team livery (equivalent to Fat Albert),

The final livery of the final retired one by the French Air Force would make for a cracking special,

As would the final retirement livery for the Luftwaffe’s one,

60 years of the Luftwaffe/55 years LTG livery,

McDermott Aviation also operate this one down in Oz which’d be ace to have at SYD,

Balair operated one in the late 60s for the Red Cross,

And a UN one could be cool to see,

And said Luftwaffe/UN aircraft when it was returned wore the white livery for the rest of its days which could make for a good second livery for the Luftwaffe,
