A small contribution from my side:

I never saw them flying as German Phantom, but as Greece one they are even as stunning.

Althought it is still flying in the Greece Airforce, I think that all of us can commit that this one is a living Dinosaur.

All very nice pics, (keep ´m coming) but I´m getting confused.

The theme of this thread is becoming blurry. Are we posting just old pics? Or pics of old aircraft? If so, when does an aircraft get the title ´old´?

For example: A MiG-29 taken in 2003 , does that really belong in this thread? Might as well upload an F-16 from 2005 then.

Yes, that's against the rules, but we'll have to see that through the fingers.
Oh my gods, an F-4D... :shock:
