Photo Comment

This Eagle crashed into the North Sea, some 9 miles out of the coast off Spurn Head (UK), on 25 April 1990. Its pilot ejected safely. The aircraft arrived seven years earlier, on 15 April 1983, at Soesterberg air base in the Netherlands and was flown by the 32nd Tactical Fighter Squadron "Wolfhounds" since.
