There are a few on facebook from the heritage flight foundation and USAF.
Jim sent me a couple on my phone so I'm sure some more will pop up.
All I got was a dirty 51 back in the hangar.

Where did all the F-4 Phantom's come from? I thought the only flying Phantom was the Collings Foundation.

The USAF may have 10-20 flying Phantoms at any time.
They are all based at Holloman AFB, NM or Tyndall AFB, FL.
These are flown for test purposes only and of course, a few for Heritage Flight.

I understand there were no Strike Eagles there. I did see a nice air to air cockpit photo from Capt. Dover "Mace" on FB.

The USAF F-4s have been pretty active on the airshow circuit recently, I got these shots in the last two years:airtj wrote:Where did all the F-4 Phantom's come from? I thought the only flying Phantom was the Collings Foundation.

Guess this explains how I came to see TWO Phantoms loafing towards Ellington Field yesterday. Thanks for asking airtj, and vlado for answering.

Thank you for the pictures Mr Vlado 
I don't see your beautiful girl (Moonbeam McSwine) in any of your pictures 
Is she OK? Winter maintenance? Repainted her? Surely you didn't have to fly to the conference on a commercial flight??!!?? I've had a very long love affair with her as she was the first Mustang I saw up close and in flight. If ever you bring her to Virginia, I will be the first in line to wipe the bugs off of her...lovingly...might have to go back after I am done to wipe my drool off of her
