"Just a nice Picture...!"

Recently, aviation friend Matt Ellis was on the right time and place to photograph this stunning coloured 71st Flying Training Squadron T-38A Talon.

Matt took the photograph of the three types of special blue coloured 'Agressor' Talon whilst transiting Fort Worth (TX).

This T-38A, with serial number 64-13176/FF-76, is one of eighteen currently in the inventory of the 71st FTS Ironmen flying out of Joint Base Langley-Eustis (VA).

The unit provides dedicated, professional adversary air with its T-38As and over forty assigned and attached Active Duty and Virginia Air National Guard pilots. In an average month, the Ironmen will fly over 300 sorties to keep the 1st Fighter Wing's F-22A Raptor pilots combat mission ready.
