Once upon a time in the west, Phancon Tyndal 1998

Post by Gordsmith » Sun Oct 30, 2022 11:25 am

A first look at “Phancon” held at Tyndal AFB 22/10/98. So many F-4s, many the same as at Hollomann a year earlier, so again I have been brutal with the cull, especially those held over at “the swamp.” Other than the
F-4s there are a few items of interest in this batch.
Regards, Gordon.

Great pictures ... The good ol' Rhino... I attended the very first Phancon in St. Louis which unfortunately was the one and only for me!
