F-4 Phantom Parking Only...


Recommended Posts

If there is a Phantastic Phantom more Phamous than "Showtime 100" would someone please tell me what it is. The USAF answer would be "Chico" ( I think), I don't know about the Marines, or other nations Phantoms.

The Marines one would be the Shamrock that got the only Marine MiG kill in Vietnam in my opinion.

Would this happen to be "Showtime 100"? From the Paul Minert collection.

Yes Ray, those are both of 'Showtime 100' ...

Photos would be most likely from 1969 and 1970 respectively ...

The top photo at Moffet is fairly common but the second shot, not so much ...

Thanks for sharing those ...

Nope, the "Famous" Showtime 100 was BuNo 155800 ...

The one you have just posted is 155580, probably chosen for it's similar BuNo as a replacement ...

The original was of course lost during the famous Triple Kill mission of May 10th, 1972 ...

Nice photo ...
