Aviodrome 16-11-2014

Post by Eric van Lisdonk »

Today I brought a short visit to Lelystad to see the 2 F-50's from Peru. On the Aviodrome site i noted a Red F-104 and a Hunter with RAF markings. Did somebody know there serial numbers??

Mind you, the REAL identity of the Hunter is ex-Danish AF Mk.51 E-410! It has taken on the identity of RAF WV395 only because it received the tail of this bird and because the RAF training scheme was considered more attractive than the green Danish scheme when it was added to the collection (and easier to maintain, being gloss rather than matt) !
