The Jaguar served with the Royal Air Force from 1974 to 2007 as a strike/ attack and reconnaissance fighter bomber, equipping eight squadrons in Germany and the UK during the Cold War, and was used in combat
during the first Gulf War and in the Balkans conflict. Now at the end of its RAF career, it will be remembered as a rugged and reliable aircraft, capable of finding and putting bombs on a target in bad weather with
unprecedented accuracy. Jaguar Sunset portrays a favourite haunt of Jaguar pilots: the West coast of Scotland near Torridon looking towards the Island of Skye and Kyle of Lochalsh, an area where military pilots enjoy some of the most challenging flying in the world. Drawing on his own experiences as a Jaguar pilot, Mike Rondot has created a fine tribute and a fitting epitaph to an outstanding combat aircraft. This limited edition print is available in four versions: Artist and OC 6 Sqn signed; artist’s proof; remarque; canvas giclée.

GICLÉE CANVAS MASTERWORKS
These beautiful artist-signed prints on canvas replicate the look and feel of the original painting with striking effect, making it extremely difficult at first sight to differentiate between the original and the reproduction. Only TEN are issued in this edition, with an image size of 760x500mm, 30x20 inches.

ARTIST’S PROOFS
Artist’s proofs (APs) are traditionally reserved for use by the artist and publisher. Collectors give them greater value because they have added signatures and may be difficult to obtain. Four celebrated Jaguar pilots have individually signed the 50 APs in this edition

REMARQUE PRINTS
Especially prized for their rarity value and personal touch, remarque prints have additional signatures and an original pencil drawing of a Jaguar added to the print border similar to the example at the bottom of this page. Purchasers may specify individual squadron aircraft and badges to personalise their print.

THE SIGNATURES
each copy of JAguAR SunSet is individually certificated and signed by Wing Commander JOHN SULLIVAN, CO of 6 Sqn, the last RAF Jaguar squadron at the aircraft’s retirement in 2007.
Additionally, four celebrated Jaguar pilots and commanders have individually signed the 50 artist’s proofs and 25 remarque prints:
