Hi there,

looking for the Serial of the F-4G that was displayed at the Entrance to the Mojave Airport in April 1997. Any info welcome.

I don’t believe there ever was an F-4G there?
This one, pictured in 1996, is an F-4C...

This Phantom topic has somehow showed up in the Rotterdam section... :wink:

Not to worry, it will be moved to a more appropriate section later on, I suppose. :wink:
November 2024 update at FokkerNews.nl....
