Condition

Formed in Palestine on 1 August 1917, No. 111 Squadron enjoyed a distinguished RAF career, flying Hurricanes and Spitfires in WWII before transitioning to jets like the Meteor F.8 in the post-war years. Its final aircraft was the Tornado F3, the RAF’s primary air defence interceptor for 25 years. Based at RAF Leuchars, the squadron protected UK airspace from threats like Russian ‘Bear’ reconnaissance aircraft. Disbanded in March 2011, 111 Squadron’s closure marked the retirement of the Tornado F3. Though gone, the aircraft is fondly remembered and has since been succeeded by the Eurofighter Typhoon.

 

Grading

Grading Criteria

Our grading is based mainly on the physical condition of the model itself, including paintwork, attached parts, repairs, visible wear and overall presentation. Box condition and missing separate accessories are noted separately where applicable.

Mint (10/10)
- As new, with no visible flaws to the model itself.

Near Mint (9/10)
- Very light signs of handling, storage or display only.

Excellent (8/10)
- Light wear or a few tiny marks, but still displays very well.

Very Good (7/10)
- Noticeable wear, small chips or rubs, but still presentable as a display piece.

Good (6/10)
- Obvious overall wear, visible marks or paint loss; better suited as a display or filler piece.

Fair (5/10)
- Heavy wear, larger areas of paint loss, repairs or clearly visible flaws.

Spares / Repairs (4/10 or below)
- Significant damage, missing attached parts, broken components or best suited for restoration/spares.

If a separate accessory, stand, leaflet, certificate or optional part is missing, this will be mentioned in the listing notes. The model may still receive a high grade if the model itself remains in strong condition.
