Here’s a chance to redeem myself and post a couple of great F-100 pics courtesy of NASA.
You like these ones, PhantomII ?

I like the Thud too, but what does it have to do with the F-100?
Not trying to be rude or anything. By the way that’s a nice photo of that F-105G you posted.
Sorry P11, didn’t mean to hijack your thread with the F105, I like both of the jets and as they fought alongside each other in ‘Nam, thought I would do a pic.
Maybe I should start a thread dedicated to the Thud also.

As much as I like the “Hun” ,I have to say that to me the “Thud” is far more impressive.
Very much a pseudo-successor to the P-47 , a real Republic product through and through. Big, fast and very tough !!!

Beautiful pics, Stieglitz.
As said before, that Morane is awesome !!

On behalf of our NZ’ers here, condolences and deepest sympathies to you, Pete.
May they rest in peace and never be forgotten.

Thanks, Alex.
Doesn’t look very practical to me.

How do you guys think one of these would go against an EE lightning ?
Obviously the Lightnings a lot faster,..but..??
TNZ
Not exactly C-5 Galaxy “kneeling” capability, me thinks…;)

Well if it’s true about the government not being involved, then that’s a travesty on it’s own.
Hat’s off to Mr Keefe and all of the other brave RNZAF people who died in WW2 🙁

Actually I’d love to see a pic of the Stirling with it’s cargo-nose open.
I’ve always wondered how they got cargo in there considering it’s a zillion feet off the ground.
Anyone care to share ??
Cheers

Very interesting, Dave.
I also knew nothing about this until today.
Very sad, but a fitting tribute.
It’s great that the government it’s starting to actually look at what NZer’s did during WW2.
Cheers
Chris
re-that last pic, interesting how the paint blisters off around the tail section.
Apparently, at take-off on afterburner the whole sction glows !!
Cheers
