Hello everyone.

This picture was taken in Afghanistan shows the 5000 Flt hours achievement.

Who can tell me about the Squadron Badge which is seen on RNLAF J-057?


RNlAF F-16AM #J-057 & squadron members pose for a picture at Kandahar airfield to commemorate 5,000 hours of flight over Afghanistan on March 17th, 2007.


Thanks
Falconniek

Thanks for the nice picture and your background info, Falconniek! 5000 flight hours over Afghanistan of all deployed Dutch Vipers since they joined OEF with rotating EPAF F-16 contingents? Cheers
