What Cockpit?

[Self loading bear]

Am I the only taker?
The articulated boom/drogue, looks to be of a F-105 Thunderchief.
But I cannot match it with any belly photo.
Then above that ?F-105? Is a KC-135 Stratotanker.
So we probably see a very rare triple refueling.
Now the receiver is not a Thud….

I can assist further by showing the author/photographer dismount from said aircraft.
Taken from a 1965 edition of National Geographic.

The tricky exit for the GIB is a bit of a give-away. A "Hun" two-seater - F-100F?

I didn't realize that any USAF aircraft had refuelling probes.

Indeed it is Simon. Over to you.
And here's the single seater topping-up crossing the Atlantic photographed by the gent above.

Hi Simon.
Painted yellow on the outside?

[India Four Two]

Indeed, with some green trim.

Yellow outside with some green trim?

Oh dear. I was hoping it might be a Lockheed Vega, but the colour scheme I suspect makes it unlikely...

Cheers.

[India Four Two]

This green trim.

I failed Kindergarten.

Can you find a crayon to add the registration?

[Asturias56]

will someone just tell us what it is?

[Noyade]

Well I thought someone would step in.
Lock me in for the Fokker Super Universal?

[India Four Two]

Noyade has it - CF-AAM, a restored Fokker Super Universal.





I saw it once when it was flown into my gliding club’s airfield by Clark Seaborn, the restorer.

The sad thing is that after being flown around for several years, Clark was contractually required to deliver it to Winnipeg to be marooned forever in a museum!
