Ray,

It's a photo of an F-16A skidding on its belly tank on a runway. Here is a link to the photo and an excerpt from the caption below it:

http://cdn-www.airliners.net/aviation-p ... 043082.jpg
This 332 skvadron F-16A on exchange with the 32nd TFS (Wolfhounds) seemed to make a low approach but then set down on its center drop tank and skid down the runway! The aircraft aborted and pulled into a climb, went around and landed safely.

    Ray try again. The forum didn't recognise the link properly without url tags.
