Ferrying the Phantom home
Posted: Thu Dec 07, 2006 9:08 pmwell I decided to do a little long haul from Korat RTAFB to Hawaii today since it is finals week and I didn't have any today, what else am I going to do, study?
anyway so here is the leg from Anderson AFB on Guam to Wake Island. (I forgot to take pictures from Thailand to the Philippines and on to Guam stupid, stupid me, lets just say that my chase plane left the film at Anderson.)
here is me shortly after take off about half an hour after sunrise Guam time,
an hour out and nothing for miles, with GPS overlay for proof
just before landing, note the drag chute hatch
And finally we are on the ground, my WSO and I pop the canopies and take a breath of that fresh island air before we get out and stretch our legs. We have a long flight ahead.
If you can't tell I used the Alphasim Phantom pack two F-4C with repaint of Col. Olds "SCAT XXVII"
keep an eye out for the next leg, it's gonna be a doosie.
