Hello to all,

I'm looking for the history of this picture.Right side of a Viper Twenthe AB Badge: Aircraft Maintenance F-16 TWENTHE

1. When & why has this been used?
2. What F-16 wore it?

If there is any member of the former Twenthe Base or anyone who can give me the answer, I'll be very happy.


Thanks
Greetings Falconniek

Yeah, this brings back memories from being a HVO-er in this squadron.

This patch was for the Base maintenance squadron in hangar 11, in the early '90's. We shared this hangar with 315 squadron. We did preventitive and corrective maintenance for both squadrons (313/315) and sometimes for other bases if they were busy.

The patch wasn't applied to the jets back then, but some of us wore it on our uniform. The application on the jet is from a later date.

If I have more time, I'll scan a few more patches from that era.
