Do you realize that’s an F-4?

That’s just one of his standard pics for a NavAir ping. I am sure he knows what a scooter looks like.

Singapore purchased a lot and upgraded the avionics - got something pretty close to a Block C F-16 for a fraction of the cost.

Swapped out the engine for a -404 with a burner.

Still driving them.

Hahah, I wish! My fingers still have some little scars from the dang safety wire cutting into ‘em, trying to get the devils loose. Heck of an aircraft. :-)

Yes, I don’t have a pic of every Navair type, so mostly use that one whenever the thread is about aircraft. Take a close look at the national emblem on it.
