Robert Taylor’s Hot Stuff – Rolling records the final fixed-wing launch from HMS Ark Royal on 27 November 1978.
The aircraft is Phantom F-4K XT870/R-012 of 892 Naval Air Squadron, flown by RAF exchange pilot Flight Lieutenant Murdo MacLeod with Lieutenant Dennis McCallum RN in the rear seat.
Taylor originally created the painting for his own collection while working on a larger commission connected with the retirement of Ark Royal. The scene captures the moment the Phantom leaves the carrier deck at the end of an important chapter in Fleet Air Arm history.
The edition is signed by Robert Taylor and Murdo MacLeod, giving it a direct connection with the pilot of the aircraft depicted.
