Photo Comment

After a two day delay, twelve 8th Tactical Fighter Squadron F-15As arrived at Gilze Rijen air base as part of a Coronet Scout deployment. This 77-0081/HO arrived at quite common soil as, after its delivery to the USAF on 2 October 1978, it was assigned to the 32nd TFS at Soesterberg air base (the Netherlands) between December 1978 and May 1980. It then continued its USAF career with several CONUS wings. It was eventually stored at AMARC from 28 November 1986 to 21 April 2015 after which it was scrapped by HVF West at Tucson.
