Coulson’s dramatic painting Bolt for the Blue,
published to commemorate the 50th anniversary of
the first flight of the Lightning, captures the
very essence of this formidable fighter. Seen climbing
out of RAF Wattisham, a Lightning F.3 of Treble
One Squadron scrambles to intercept an unidentified
intruder plotted on the RAF’s early warning
radar. Almost certainly it will be Russian, probably
he will be escorted out of harms way, but the interceptor
is armed with a pair of air-to-air missiles just
in case. A superb collector print for all who remember
one of the greatest British fighters ever built.
