F-4 Phantom X!

TuFun

Riveter
Cloud 9 F-4 Phantom X German, George AFB (1972)
I remember at least 6 or more of these birds with sequential numbers.
German pilots trained at George and had that Euro paint scheme.
Pulled the seats a few times from this bird. 21122

tufun,

I was at George AFB in 1972, also. Worked midnight shift munitions flightline delivery, crew chief. Spent most of my time in the hot shack (trailer) at the north end of the flightline. Unfortunately, because of those hours, didn't get to look to closely at the birds on the flightline. I do vaguely remember the different paint schemes, but couldn't get close enough to look them over. Thanks for the fixes so I can use the Cloud9 F-4 in FSX.

I was there from 1976 to 1979, pulling and installing buckets all day long. George AFB is where I got my experience with F-105F/G Wild Weasel birds. Awesome aircraft!
