They now just have the full registration on the tail in small lettering, more difficult to recognise on the light blue grey livery.
The downsizing of the tail numbers started once 37 SQN started going to the Middle East with the J models i believe. When we got the J's in 1999 they had a similar tail marking to the SQN's then E models.
