RAF & French pilots with their USAF counterpart exchange pleasantries alongside an F-80 (54-8717) of the 36th Fighter Group. This aircraft crashed in 1952.
Same pilots, different aircraft. This Vampire and its pilots were assigned (I believe) to No. 16 Squadron.
Swarm of Vampires zooming by.
This is the same F-80 as seen in the first photo, but in the spirit of NATO cooperation, it flies with a Mustang of the French Air Force’s Groupe de Reconnaissance GR II/33 “Savoie”.
