"You call that a close-up? Sorry mate, THIS is a close-up!"
These and others totalling 272 images were taken last Friday at the
McChord AFB Museum. I now have the mother of all photographic cockpit
references for the F-15.
They have an F-106 on display that is _very_ well done. If anyone has any
F-106 parts, please let me know. There is still work to be done on that
restoration.
Their website is at http://mcchordairmuseum.org/
