I'm not sure if this is the right forum, if not feel free to remove to the proper place!
This one is from april 72 from Soesterberg. No code and a white rudder. I still remember we found it a peculiar sight those days! Anyone with more info on this one?
Sorry for the poor quality. In those days my first camera was the cheapest I could get: a Zenith....... :oops:

1988 was the 75th anniversary of the KLu and during the Open Dag at Deelen many flying aircraft were located at Soesterberg, including Patrouille de Suisse and Frecce Tricolori.

Here the support of PdS seen arriving

Image

When Frecce arrived the weather was terrible

KLu demo F-16 during an overshoot earlier that week

very nice pictures Ron!! Keep them coming!

Here two from the Open Dag on 19th June 1976:

This F-111E from Upper Heyford was in the flying display and seen taxiing in from of the F-84F Thunderstreaks used as decoys near the fire brigade. Picture taken from the "old" spottersplace in front of Hypsos.

Image

Then present at every airshow, the CH-54 Tarhe. Almost every time a Volkswagen Kever had to be dropped from this helicopter.

some scans of my efforts back in 1981/1982 when I was the proud owner of a Praktica LTL. First a F-15C wearing the full color roundel and squadron badge

Image

Cockpit close up. Wow, I love that helmet!

Image

F-27 Troopship with the original blunt nose. Later they all received weather radar
