| Always a good appointment is the visit to the Tel Nof families’ day, a day ahead of the open house. Although there is no |
| flying, a good collection of aircraft and helicopters can be photographed with little effort. Surprise to insiders was the |
| discovery of six F-16 fuselages in an old F-4 shelter area. Most if not all carried 144sq markings but could not be identified |
| because our coach could not stop; we had female air force attendants on board. Problems with the F-16s; 719 does not |
| exist and 755 is at Ovda. Sorely missed are the two F-4E-2000 squadrons; their sun sheds were a source of six to seven |
| additional aircraft plus two more on static. |
