Photographer's remark
(11.1.2009, 07:57 CET)
The aircraft was loaned to the French Air Force, where it flew with the code 11-EZ. At the end of the loan period this F100 and others were flown to RAF Sculthorpe for disposal, almost all went to UK museums for preservation.
According to the Lashenden Air Warfare Museum's web site, this aircraft....."Following a tragic accident when the F100F has badly damaged by a crashing aircraft in March 2007 it has regrettably been decided to return the aircraft to the National Museum of the United States Air Force for spares reclamation (to aid other museum's restoration projects) & scraping. This decision was taken jointly by the Trustees of the museum & the National Museum of the United States Air force in view of the lack of & cost of spares to rebuild the aircraft."
