Introducing 'Moggy'
The Royal Air Force revealed a newly painted display aircraft for the 2024 Display Season at RAF Coningsby. With 2024 being the 80th Anniversary of the Allied invasion of Normandy, the aircraft paint scheme includes features which commemorate D-Day. The Eurofighter Typhoon is painted in a 1944-era “Day Fighter” scheme which commemorates a Hawker Typhoon of No.257 Squadron, coded FM-G.
On D-Day itself, this particular aircraft was flown by Pilot Officer Denzel Jenkins. Beginning the war as an airman, Jenkins was commissioned as an officer in January 1944. Later, he became Officer Commanding (OC) No.257 Squadron and was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross. Bold features, including the RAF Tactical Recognition Flash and the D-Day invasion stripes, offer a degree of heritage by the display team this year. 2024 is also the 30th Anniversary of the first flight of the Typhoon.
The display aircraft, serial ZJ913, will be a regular at airshows around the UK, and is nicknamed “Moggy”.
