On its way to the Volkel runway during a shooting camp. This dual seat Hornet carried 439 Sabre-Toothed Tiger squadron marking on its tail. In February 1987, a fuel bowser hit the Hornet on the ground. The aircraft was repaired and on 4 May 1987 it made a test flight. During that flight, the Hornet went into a unexpected and uncontrolled tailspin over Renchen (Germany). The pilots were not able to recover it and decided to eject. The Hornet was destroyed, both pilots were safe.
