VP-7, Black Falcons were deployed to Keflavik four times, in '52, '56, '59 and '64. Here some of them are already in the new light gull grey scheme being introduced, but others are still in the seaplane grey color that was introduced in 1957.
Sp-2H 214 from the left side. Parked behind the early warning (transient) ramp behind the big hangar 885 the doors of which originally had round opening holes to facilitate working on B-36 bombers with the tails stuck outside the opening!
A VP-18 Neptune Photographed at the 1963 Reykjavík Airshow. Not very many color photos of Neptunes in the so called Seaplane Grey scheme are available. This was my first decent aircraft photo. Taken on a 6x9 cm color negative film.
Another of the Dutch Neptunes in for a visit and some cooperation with the USNavy resident P-3C squadrons. The fin of a Loftleiðir DC-8 visible in front of the old civilian terminal.
