I received updates for both payware Phantoms today. Have only had time to install one of them, but it would be so cool to have a repaint for the first backseat ride I ever had, which was in NATC F-4J BUNO 153088.
Although I did find a photo of the aircraft, NATC made some small changes to the paint scheme after I left the base in 1976. But here are some photos of the other Phantoms which were there at the time. The only difference was the BUNO. I can't recall if BUNO 153088 originally had a black, gray, or white nose. But I DO know that when I was at Patuxent River, before the base reorganized, that all their aircraft nose modex numbers were the last three numbers of their BUNOs . After the base reorganized around 74, was when modex's were painted to reflect fleet aircraft. NC
