Unfortunately, the Belgian Alpha Jets did not carry a unit marking, but they were furnished in a lovely colorscheme! At the moment of this picture, they belonged to the Operations & Training Wing at Beauvechain. AT20 was one of 33 such aircraft in the Belgian inventory and was retired in 2018. It is since preserved at Cazeux (France).

Serial 61-7956 heading for the runway of Edwards. It was bound for another flight in support of NASA research. Unfortunately, I was not allowed to enter the platform so full back light. Strikingly, a part of this Blackbird was used for creating a very fine watch from REC Watches, and since 1 August 2025, that watch (one of 1372 made) is now on my wrist (I have nr. 64, as I have special memories to that Blackbird (61-7964) which I pictured at Mildenhall, see AirHistory picture ID 191523).
