Still wearing the markings of former F-16 unit 306 Squadron, this was one of nineteen Fighting Falcons on show at a superb photo day organised by Spotting Group Volkel.

As 306 sqn had its war time base at the Limburg air base De Peel this squadron had the flag of the province Limburg as tail band. This changed after De Peel was closed.
