US Army also sent UH-1 sometimes. Not worth a posting, except for this one. The slide says JAN78.

A very nice pic but definitely not taken in januari! Sunlight is too bright and lots of green in the background. I would say autumn in an early stage!
So probably taken in september/october.

This thread never ends....., the supply of pics seems unending !!! Great

But also very frustrating to see what jewels visited the bakermat in the old days. Frustrating since they will never come again. Those RAF Phantoms just put a tear in my eye. Keep 'em coming guys.

The date on the slide says MAR85. Those days we would find this a fairly uninteresting visitor.

then there was snow in the winter.....

first visit of a pair of F-16C Falcons from Ramstein. They flew GE F110 powered Falcons and the Hahn-based ones had the PW F100 engines.

Again not the best quality but nevertheless interesting visitors (due to their prefix...

Actually, these pics were taken at Hilversum (EHHV). Because Soesterberg was closed at...sunday..., they diverted to Hilversum! The very next day they took off -in the early morning- with destination Soesterberg!

Great stuff, everyone!!!!!!!!!
The RAF F4s were they part of an sqdr.exchange?
Because I can remember a friday, when 6 RAF F4s from
No92 sqdr. came in for a sqdr.exchange.
I did see the Swedish Army choppers also at Hilversum airfield!
And took pictures of them aswell.
