I saw my first Torrejon based Hornets in 1989, when Ala 12 was transitioning from the F-4C to the F-18. 36 years later, Ala 12 still operates this aircraft. This one is seen here taking off from Albacete during TLP 25/3. This photo is copyright © Jonathan Verschuuren, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
