This is one of the F-111Es that would have been familiar to British enthusiasts as it was based at RAF Upper Heyford with the 79th TFS/20th TFW from the mid-1970s. By 1979 it had been transferred to the 40th Flight Test Squadron here at Eglin, as shown in my photo here. Retired to the museum in 1992 This photo is copyright © Richard Vandervord, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
