PeterN - Thanks for providing this info. Any idea why these Vipers did not get a fresh coat of paint?
The first batch IIRC were all freshly painted.
Thanks PeterL |

| They will be painted once arrived in Chile. The first ones got a new paint due to a official ceremony upon arrival in Chile. |

Hey PeterN
Do you have any idea why very few of the Dutch vipers are in good paint condition.? The ones on the pictures doesn`t look to good either. When ever i`ve seen one, they seem to really need a good touch up. Do you now if the planes that were sold had the banana fitting installed? Wonder how much a used F16A is worth??? Have a nice day  |
