Yesterday evening some F-4s arrived from the Davis Monthan boneyard for their last mission. Here is one of them caught while landing, flown by an expert pilot. EDIT: the pilot is a veteran of air war, but his aircraft has no position nor landing lights as they have been mounted on another F-4 in service in Germany :P

It was the last time a person would fly them...

They took off not to land anymore, hit by an AMRAAM fired by some F-15 or F-22

And they are gone. Farewell Phantoms!

Nice shots. Looks like the expert forgot to turn on his position/anti-smack/landing lights..j/k.

That last shot is my contender for Hotshot for March. Lovely work. And great tie in story too.
