Hermeskeil Western Jets

What a great collection images/cold war aircraft. Thanks for posting.

Shame you cant catalog images individually. It would make a great database on SM. Or can you somehow ? Im rather new to the site so please let me know.

Welcome Mike,
I'm not aware of a way to catalog pictures. Good idea though.

Hi, one of the Mirage III's is actually a ex-Belgian Mirage 5. The "Belgian" Fouga is a mix of an ex-Belgian and an ex-French Fouga.

Güther, I believe you on your word. I just copy from the signs the museum puts up 😉

Günther Debiscop
Martin, no problems 😉
I know that few museums indicate correctly the aircraft's (sub)type, especially if they have been repainted with colors and markings they never have worn during active service. At Hermeskeil, several displayed aircraft have this problem. Just have a look at my FB-album about Hermeskeil. It might help you out 😉
