How sad to see ! When did this happen?
I'd rather see the P-170 in its active years , such as this one :

I passed the former airbase of Memmingen last weekend, were this streak is still present.

The aircraft is surrounded by fences, so that it will not be demiloished by vandals.

Perhaps nice to move this topic up to the front lines again :
I took this Belgian Thunderstreak at Chièvres in 1987 while it was guarding the gate...

Take it easy ! :wink:

I think it is high time to give this topic another push in the right direction for example with this picture of a Belgian Thunderflash at Ramstein in 1971..

Hi Michel !

That's nice ! I like that picture of yours ! :wink: :!:
Of course it is not a real Thunderstreak in-flight , but it certainly looks like one ! The vertical tail-section seems to me a little bit short in relation to the exhaust , but that is pea-nuts ! Anyway ,well done !
I think you prefer a colour -photo of P-226 during its operational days and this is the only one I can find in my collection.
Perhaps it will be of some use to you.

Most of the pictures that I took during the Sixties and Seventies were still in Black & White. Here is an example of P-226 during landing at Eindhoven-Welschap.
