Photo Comment

Rolling down the taxiway of homebase Soesterberg. This F-15C was delivered to the USAF at Soesterberg on 14 August 1980 and served the Wolfhounds up to 13 September 1990. The Eagle was then sold to Saudi Arabia and received serial 4202 with 42sq. It was in June 1991 assigned to 13sq and from mid-1997 to 6sq with serial 604 and transferred to 2sq with serial 204. In the background aircraft battle damage repair F-105F 62-4417 can be seen. That Thunderchief can now be found as preserved at Hermeskeil (Germany).
