I'd say you were right about this being a F-4 Trop. The white theatre markings denote Mediterranean/African service and the single colour camo looks like light blue/sand.

Re: Aircraft Wrecks
The problem is that I've seen G-2's in the same colours n' with white markings but I'm guessing that it's an F-4/Trop.

Re: Aircraft Wrecks
The lack of wing armament would suggest an F model. What ever it is, great picture.

Re: Aircraft Wrecks
Okay I know the picture of the B-26 isn't exactly a 'wreck' but it would have ended up one not long after the photo was taken.







Cheers,
Dave

Proverbly nothing you could post here mate without breaking the forum's rules, that would be my guess.

Something very strange about his photo. Would you be standing chating next to a burning military aircraft potentialy full of fuel and ammunition??

Composite or shopped in my opinion
