Photo Comment

In July 1986, nine F-16s of 322Sqn were based at Gilze-Rijen due to runway works at Leeuwarden. At that time, Gilze-Rijen's main runway was not in use either, so all flying operations took place from the short runway 20. The taxitrack leading to runway 20, at that time, was very close to the fence.
