The photo of this F-4B was taken shortly before VF-41 converted to the F-4J in 1973 (which again was replaced by the F-4N one year later). This particular aircraft was later converted to F-4N and then to QF-4N.

This early production F-4B was converted to QF-4B with the NADC at Warminster NAF in the early 1970s. This picture was probably taken in 1973. Both year and place need confirmation though.

A truly historical photo. The airport was (and still is!) designated as THE training airport of the Netherlands. In this photo you see the RLS (Rijksluchtvaartschool) receiving their first Citation 500. Obviously, it drew quite the crowd, with everyone being eager to have a peek at this new aircraft. Cancelled in 1987, later serving as G-HOLL, PH-CTA (different operator), N170MD and N251DD. In 2007 it was still active and in flying condition!

Ah, the days when all that separated photographers from the aircraft was a waist height fence and in some areas around Adelaide only stardropper posts with 3 or 4 wires and that was enough for us to honour the barrier.

Few photos exist of the only piston-engine Porter to grace the Australia register. It was based in Papua New Guinea and became P2-UIE when that country adopted its own register in May 1984. It was used in support of the Catholic Divine Word Mission missionaries.
