This was not even half of it
Every fall in the eighties the RAF and AAC visited Eelde for fuel on their way to Scandinavia. In january most of them came back via Eelde.

Pieter, when will you ever stop to amaze me?

Wouldn’t it be nice to place some of my slide scans here from photographs I made in the early sixties of last century on Soesterberg AB Holland? Subject of interest: the Wolfhounds Squadron.
I took slides 1 and 3 with an Ilford Sportsman (fixed focus) camera and 2 and 4 with an Asahi Pentax Spotmatic. As film I used Agfa CT-18 colour slides. I scanned the slides with my Canoscan 5000F.
I didn’t use Noise Ninja or anything else to improve the quality, apart from removing dust, so what you see is the raw material. Hope you like it.


1) F-102A Delta Dagger 61043 on a snowy but bright day in January 1963. The compartment where the AIM-4D Falcons were stored is open.


2) The pilot’s helmet visor protection was also showing the red, white and blue flag. September 1965.


3) “Bubbles”, one of the twoseaters of the 32nd Fighter Interceptor Squadron, known as the (Queens own) Wolfhounds. January 1963.


Delta Dagger 60983 takes off in afterburner mode. July 1966.

The story behind these slides is to be found here (in Dutch ) and here (in English).

Dick...
Pieter & Dino, I guess you guys could tell us in one line which US bases you did not visit in those days...
Roel, very well-balanced colours as always.

P.S.: Could not resist some quick processing. If you want me to remove it Dick, I will of course.

Be my guest. I like the results very much, apart from the red on the tail, which was in fact the dark "analine" coloured red you see on the pictures 1 and 3.
Notice that in 1966 (picture 4), when they painted the airbrakes and the droptanks red, white and blue, they used a brighter kind of red.

Grtz,
