I really appreciate your splendid contributions to this Topic , Dick! :o
By the way : according to my information your picture of P-254 was taken at RAF Chivenor, U.K. in August 1969
How do you like this one ? Belgian RF-84F FR-17 at Wildenrath,Germany in 1969.
Keep on posting!

I really like the Dutch one's
it is nice to have some color material for scale modeling.
Thank you for the effort of showing them here.

Dear Mr Herbert, Hans, Dick and anybody else who tributed to this threat:

You're showing multiple times an airplane in an era long before I was born. By doing that (in color!) you're giving us an insight of how these beautiful planes operated in the same skies that are now dominated by more familiar types like F-16's, Tornado's etc. It makes you fantasize how spotting would be like in those day's and is the only reason that I would like to be much older than I am right now.

So please keep'em coming, I appreciate all you're efforts to this threat very much!

Erik
