F-86D in Japan

F-86Ds in Japan



Note the drag chute being used on this F-86's landing.

F-86Ds in Japan, mid 1950s.

These photographs were taken by my father, during the Korean War, at the Air Force base where he was stationed.

F/A-18D


All of these are the same F/A-18-D. CLick for full size.




F/A-18D.

The  F/A-18 is a modern, supersonic, and Aircraft Carrier capable fighter/attack aircraft (F/A). It is still in service primarily with the US Navy and US Marine Corps, but also with the Royal Australian Air Force and the Spanish Air Force. 

This was at the Natrona County Airport airshow in 2006. I've got a lot more photos from that airshow, but I wont put them up all at once.
