awesome pics, tho with the Rosie I would think they would have sold France either Ns (they handled better around the Midways than the S) or refurbed F-8s. Worked on something similar when I was doing the N skinpack but for some reason couldnt get the shades of blue on the nose and body to match up. and yes, does belong in the what if section, but still pretty neat

There are so many great screenshots over the years, it is difficult to choose which ones really show something...dramatic, composed, a story in one shot, and thinking back on each event wishing I had more shots of that flight to tell a deeper tale. Anyway, here we go..

A little zipping around taking photos

Vickers Valiant crew sightseeing over the Sinai, 1956.  (They can see the Pyramids from here.)

 On the way back they spot an Egyptian air base.  They leave their calling cards (21 1000lb general purpose iron bombs).
