F4 - Phantom

The definitive combat aircraft of the 60s and 70s the Phantom served in variety of roles for some twelve different air forces. Over 5,000 wer built in several variant types and it was in active service with the US forces as late as the Gulf War - as the Wild Weasel variant. The F4 also served with the RAF and RN having an important role in the Falklands conflict. While �brutish� in appearance it was much approved by aircrews all over the world who lovingly referred to it as �a triumph of thrust over aerodynamics� !

Seen here in the livery of the famous Triple Nickel (555 Sqdn) colours during the Vietnam conflict.

Have been interested in photography since just after WW2, when film became freely available again, using Kodak Autographic equipment. Graduated, in the 50's, to 35mm and was involved in photographic work during my 17 yrs as RAF aircrew - navigator. Since retirement and migrating to Canon digital equipment have been involved with two of my sons and one grandson in a considerable amount of photographic activity, particularly composite images. Now producing digital art prints with the major emphasis on classic warbird aviation. With son, Duncan, now becoming a well-known and published wild life photographer we have started, in 2017, a new gallery reflecting Scottish sea birds - and 'feathered' flight
