wolverine1947 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 I saw them once at Shaw AFB SC when I was stationed there in 1969 working maintenance on RF-4C.Lovely big performer.Drag chutes on landing red,white and blue were beautiful. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
B-ONE27 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Does look bad A!! Would look even better next your fantastic T-bird T-38 you did up recently!! On a side note they have an F-4E done up in T- bird livery on a pole at the entrance to Vetrans park in Hamilton, NJ...if memory serves me it might even be number 2, although as I understand it, that actually airframe never served with the team...I should've taken pics :blink: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scott R Wilson Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 I came across this photo on the Thunderbirds FB page...now I wanna build that! Check out that drag chute, man! Years later some of those dragbags were still in service. We had at least one red/white/blue one at Ramstein in the early 1980s, by then it was pretty dirty though. Scott W.
