SleeperService Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 Hi All One year when I went to Mildenhall there was a fabulous display by MFG2's Viking team in appalling weather. Very low cloud and rain as I recall. Can anybody tell me what year it was (1985?) and point me at any photos. IIRC the pilots got an ovation from the crowd after landing and taxying in. I intend to model one in 48th to remember the great bunch of friends I was with. TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rod mcq Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 The 1985 Mildenhall show had a wet day and a dry day and the 2 Marine F-104s were 26+66 and 26+72. For the 1986 show - the one after Eldorado canyon - the Vikings F-104s were 26+65 and 26+83. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
