flee 5 Report post Posted October 25, 2011 Super pix from Butterworth, LaurieB! The last time I saw the F-5E in the air, it was still in its shiny aluminum look! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Y 0 Report post Posted October 25, 2011 (edited) Very nice shots Victor. Third shot for me as well. Saw the special tail F/A 18 off the beach here at Batu Ferringhi yesterday afternoon. Too far away for a decent photo though. Seems to have "70" on the fins. Nice catch of the F-5E Laurie! As for the special scheme RAAF Hornet, A21-38 is in the special scheme for 75 Sqn's 70th Anniversary. More info here, including hi-res version of the photo below.
