Deze F-15B is vast een van de oudste vliegtuigen op de basis.
Genietend van een rustpauze tussen twee bekwaamheidstests staat deze Eagle duidelijk niet onder alarmfase Zulu, met alleen maar een oefenversie van de AIM-9 onder de vleugels.
This F-15B is definitely one of the oldest airframes on base.
Having a rest between two proficiency sorties this bird clearly isn't on Zulu alert, carrying nothing but a drill AIM-9.
