Photographed in the static display at Air Fete 92 this Hawk wears a special scheme to commemorate 100 Squadron's 75th Anniversary. The skull and crossbones feature on the squadron crest and originate from a flag with this motif which was apparently stolen from a French house of ill repute in 1918. This Hawk was delivered to the RAF on the 2nd June 1980.
