A great historic image, who cares about the quality, especially with the camera gear and film we had back then.
Cheers.

81-0898 is a C-18B at this point, and the only one at that!

It supported the MILSTAR satellite programme, before being converted to a TC-18E in 2000.

So, an even rarer aircraft than your first thought!

Really nice to see historic shots like this, brings back some great memories.

Great shot Phil! Love these nostalgic, over the fence shots from year gone by

Also good to see the aircraft silhouettes on the sheds from back in the day
