Photo Request Douglas Skyknight

Fri Oct 21, 2011 10:35 pm

Looking for missile carrying F3D Skyknights and VMCJ-1 EF-10Bs in Vietnam. They need to be at least 2500x1500 pixels with min of 300dpi.
Thanks in advance. Below are some examples of what I'm looking for.

VMF-542 F3D-2M

VMCJ-1 EF-10B

Here is the only photo that I have of a missle armed F3D Skynight. This image is from an 8 x 10 inch glossy and the backside states " Official U.S. Navy Photograph" and "U.S. Naval Air Missle Test Center, Point Mugu California". The BuNo 121458. Also note the Douglas Aircraft Co. corporate logo on the nose.

Have that one. Did you notice the missiles have been added artfully?

Yeah, but at least they look better than contemporary Soviet brushwork that always looked like it had been done with a wallpaper brush 'airbrush is messed up, paint keeps blowing off bristles' :lol: :lol:
