Should you have a picture of it, I would love to hear from you Do you have any 60’s/70’s Belgian Fouga stuff?

As to the Fouga images; A quick look locates 31 negatives (including one large color neg of a Red Devil in 1965) of Belgian Fougas JUST in the 1960’s and 1970’s. other negs have Fougas marked French, Irish,Finnish and #297 in Luftwaffe.
As to the specific Fouga, I’ll try to filter all the above criteria into a search this afternoon and see if anything turns up. (131 negatives in all, a few only with units or place and without ID#s.

How do i acquire a high res’ copy of that photo please ?
.
I ask anyone requesting a photo search, high res scans. lists, questions, etc, to please contact me via my regular email address, as listed at bottom of my website home page(In the signature, below). Only reason I don’t list it here, is to try to keep it from being added to the spammers lists. Sometimes I do not notice the “PM waiting” at the top of my forum page, for a couple of days.

Here is one of the MT23 negative scans. The detail shot shows the advantage of working with negatives instead of prints. A high resolution scan can be enlarged to show many smaller details than usually possible with a photo print. This is MT23 Magister of Belgian Air Force, #280, Wethersfield, 5/69. In the high resolution scan, you can clearly see the 23 on the nose gear door, and even the small print on the wheel chocks that show 23 is using the chocks marked “77.”and a clear griffin emblem on fuselage.
