Description

Lightning Thunder – The Story Behind the Print

Lightning Thunder captures a No. 19 Squadron English Electric Lightning F2A on take-off, concentrating on the power and performance that made the aircraft such a memorable RAF interceptor.

Michael Rondot’s portrayal combines the distinctive F2A with the atmosphere of a high-power departure, reflecting an aircraft closely associated with RAF Cold War air defence.

The standard signature group links the print directly with important figures in Lightning history: Group Captain Dave Seward AFC, Group Captain Ed Durham, Air Vice-Marshal John Howe CB CBE AFC and Air Marshal Sir John Nicholls KCB CBE DFC AFC, together with Michael Rondot.

A small number of multi-signed copies are also listed with at least 38 Lightning pilot signatures. Because those copies are a distinct variant, availability and pricing should be confirmed before ordering.
