Photo Comment

This F-4 shot down a MiG-17 on May 10 1972 and the MiG silhoutte is painted back at the base of the fin. Sadly this F-4 met it's demise at the 2002 Pt Mugu airshow in an accident after a fly-over with 3 other aircraft. After the break to land the aircraft lost control and was destroyed killing both occupants.
