Now, for something completely different (and older).
Republic of Vietnam Air Force. These jets ended up in Eastern European museums after evaluation in the Eastern Bloc after having been captured in South East Asia.

Hi,

A bit off-topic, since they are not my best shots (bad scans from prints, made from slides), but two from me;

Woensdrecht 1992, former K-3057
Image

Twenthe 1984
Image

Greetings,
Stefan

Two Indonesian F-5's, a F-5E and a F-5F got updated by SABCA in Charleroi in 1998. This one arrived on April 28th at Florennes, but nobody knew.
A day later after the TLP aircraft arrived it suddenly appeared from behind the trees and made a local test flight from Florennes.

Must say, it is probably in the top three of my nicest spotting moments!!

Best regards, Rob.
