illithid00 Posted June 6, 2007 Share Posted June 6, 2007 I don't have any cockpit shots, but I've got some detail pics of an F-105G at Nellis AFB in Nevada. Let me know if you want 'em. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jay Chladek Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 (edited) Squadron has two books out with F-105G stuff in it. The Thunderchief Walkaround book contains both color and B&W photos of the front and aft pits in the 105G, showcasing its differences from the F model quite nicely as the aft center pit is VERY different from the F model, being dominated by two RHAW scopes in the upper center of the panel and an ER-142 scan receiver box below it. The second book is 'Wild Weasel" about anti SAM ops from Nam to Desert Storm (including pics of a Black Buck Vulcan with Shrikes on it). It doesn't go into the walk around emphasis so much, although I do recall it having some line drawings of the back cockpits in 105Gs and maybe some of the early converted 105Fs assigned to Weasel duty. I would scan a pic, but I am temporarily out of commission in the scanning department. The F-105 Walkaround book should be easy enough to order if a shop shelf near you doesn't stock it. Are you close to Hannants or their warehouse location (I don't have a UK map on me)? Edited June 7, 2007 by Jay Chladek Quote Link to post Share on other sites
