Formation landing-shot of F-15A-19-MC’s 77-0089 and 77-0093. Unlike the “Phantom”, the “Eagle” did not need a brake-chute when landing.

Firstly, this aircraft had a low landing speed of it’s own and secondly, it had a hughe dorsal speed-brake.

F-15A 77-0082 on it’s way to runway 27 of Soesterberg A.B.     After the F-15 “Eagles” replaced the F-4 “Phantoms”, the pilots of the 32nd

T.F.S. received new grey (toned-down) light-weight helmets, to better withstand the enormous G-forces in their new aircraft.
