Phantom Phlyout - End of an era Neuburg June 11 & 12, 2008

[migf4]

Hi gents,

I was able to stay 3 days in southern Germany with my family, to witness another chapter of the German Air Force going... as the Fighter Wing 74 had there "Phantom Phlyout" yesterday at Neuburg Airbase.

Luckily the weather was still really good, totaly different as the wx forecast was
So we could see two days of great flying at Neuburg, and especially the special colored "might Phantom" was the star of the show for me.

Other guest a/c arrived already on Wednesday, as for example 2 F-16 of the 37°St , 2 F-16 of the 52 FW , 2 F-16 of the 10W plus the EADS Heritag flight Me-262, and lots of Tornado IDS and ECR of the GAF.
Even more F-4´s came from Wittmund too, even the colored 250.000 FH jet came in.

Ok, enough of my blabla.... let the pictures telling the rest of the story :shades
Hope you enjoy my photo journey....

Cheers,
Mick

Hi Mick, congratulations for these magnificient shots...!!! Surely the F4 is one of the most interesting military aircrafts to photograph... the last one you uploaded in your topic is something special... We're waiting for other shots...

Have you ever been to Brize Norton located in the Oxfordshire UK to take shots of the RAF VC10s and Tristars tankers that are based there??
