![]() | This is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum. Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post. In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.). Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so. |
Really, we're aware of that....Erik_7Xi wrote:I don't get it - the museum is actually going to be based ON the airbase itself and all those aircraft that flew from that airbase, e.g. F-100, F-102, F-4, F-15 etc are not going to be part of the core museum display that is always available? Perhaps someone ought to remind the museum that the 32nd TFS was actually a Royal squadron?
Yes and the 32nd TFS played a key role in the defense of the Netherlands during the cold war. Displaying its entire heritage, including the F-86, F-100 and F-102, would pay tribute to the close relationship between the United States Air Force and the Royal Netherlands Air Force during those years where the threat of Soviet aggression was not only possible but a likelihood.VinFlyer wrote: Really, we're aware of that....
And the F-15 (and later the F-4) will be part of the core museum display. But it's not going to be a 32nd TFS museum, it's a Dutch Defense Museum. We've got to make choices...
