[edit] Fair use rationale

Non-free / fair use media rationale for No. 100 Squadron RAF
Description	RAF NO. 100 Squadron crest. Copyright Royal Air Force.
Source	Royal Air Force
Article	No. 100 Squadron RAF
Portion used	logo
Low resolution?
Purpose of use	This is a Crown copyright image that is in the public domain, and is being used purely for a non profit making purpose. This image is a low-resolution image of an organization's logo. The image is used as the primary means of visual identification of topics in the article. This image does not limit the copyright holder's ability to profit from the original source, nor will it dilute the importance or recognition of the logo in connection with its organization. This image enhances the article in which it's displayed, as it provides an immediate relevance to the reader more capably than the textual description alone. Use of the organization's logo visually identifies the organization and its products in a manner that mere prose cannot, and meets all criteria in WP:NFCC.
Replaceable?	Not replaceable; logos are always presumed non-free.
