Another ex French AF machine transferred across from Sculthorpe after repossession by the US in 1978. After being displayed for many years with no serial, the false identity of 56-3008 was added fairly recently, along with (too small) 'LT' tail coding to represent a 48th TFW aircraft based at Lakenheath until 1971. It is actually F-100D 54-2223, latterly flown by the Armée de l'Air in sand camouflage as 42223
