Hi Indrek,

This came up a few days ago:

"If you're wondering what it says on the side of the aircraft, it's in
Welsh. The first word is "school" and the other two are place names, and
"y" is "and".

As to why it should be on the side of the aircraft, there's more
information here:

I remember this. It was a RAF Valley family's day and this was done for
the kids from the local school. The Hawk remained static and never flew
as it would have needed special permission from up high for the non
standard paint job. I rather think that it was Black as well, so
goodness knows what's happened to the photo.

Thank you for that Rusty ©, interesting stuff and an insight as to the
mindset of those in charge of the RAF at that time.
