Two former USAF-operated Tiger IIs
(N64FK sporting 64th Aggressor Squadron colours and N65FK bedecked in those of the 57th Fighter Weapons Wing, ex-76-1529 and 76-1539, respectively)
owned by AFHFF boss Dan Friedkin,
were noted during the flight’s recent Training, Certification Course and Conference at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Arizona on March 2-5.

Operated by Friedkin’s Commanche Fighters, both jets were previously in service with the Swiss Air Force.
