Former Hawaiian Air National Guard F-15A. The cockpit is pretty much intact and you can climb up to take a look inside, but the engines are missing. I was told she will be fitted with engines soon.
58th TFTW Luke, AFB. Tail number 4081 in picture is erroneous. Believe that the number 4 was carried over from last digit of year. '87 went to 199th FS Hawaii ANG. Late '99 went to display @ Elmendorf, AFB Alaska w/tail code AK,3WG.

This F-15A on display at the Technik Museum Speyer, was obtained from an F-15 squadron at Bitburg, where it had been flying until the squadron was disbanded in 1993. Although the F-15 is a big fighter, it is dwarfed by the huge An-22 in the background.
One of my oldest slides which somehow survived. Probably from the days I roamed Twenthe as a teenager with my Practica camera and Orwo slides. Must have visited this base hundreds of times with only very few pictures remaining.
