Referred to as the “Hun”, the F-100 Super Saberwas used in Project Wild Weasel which modified two-seat F-100Fs, with the pilot flying and firing weapons from the front seat, while an electronic warfare officer (EWO) tracked enemy radar systems in the back seat. These F-100Fs, had the pilot flying and firing weapons from the front seat, while an electronic warfare officer (EWO) tracked enemy radar systems in the back seat.

In November 1965 the first Wild Weasel crews deployed to Southeast Asia -- only four months after the first USAF SA-2 loss in Southeast Asia. Their four F-100Fs had been hastily modified under great secrecy with equipment that detected enemy radar sites. Reflecting the urgent need, these volunteers planned to finish their training in combat over North Vietnam, and they flew their first anti-SAM mission on Dec. 1. This first group was replaced in February 1966 by a second group that received three more modified F-100Fs.
Typically, one F-100F Wild Weasel crew hunted enemy SAM radars with electronic equipment. After pinpointing them visually, they attacked the radars with rockets. Accompanying F-105s then followed with bombs or rockets.
The pioneer Wild Weasels proved the concept and developed effective tactics, destroying nine SA-2 sites and suppressing enemy SAMs for strike forces. Even so, three of the seven F-100Fs were lost (two in combat).
The wing pods and the cut of the vertical tail remind me of the Lockheed XF-90

This photo is of JA788A, not JA787A. Look under the port wing, outboard of the number 1 engine.

Sorry to say but these aircraft are not C-117s but standard DC-3s or C-47s.

Brian: Recently a DUCK was posted. It actually never got taken down. I sent an email to contact@flightaware.com and they told me they rely on the members to moderate the Community Pages and that they did not find the "Duck" photo. Also, said "their resources and attention are directed toward development and product support and that they appreciate bringing such things to their attention." What there saying is that the software will continue to let anything get posted and that directly having an employee watch what is posted is an after thought. So Wild West of Photo posting sites continues. This is not JetPhotos.com people! Post your Ducks! One's that are flying would be best.

Per Cirium: On Oct. 24, 2025 this 2022 Cirrus SR22T, registered to Clickit Air LLC, was destroyed by impact and post-impact fire after 'striking trees' about 1 km northeast of Lincoln Airport, Lincoln, Montana. According to authorities, the pilot had 'activated the runway lights' prior to attempting a night landing. He 'initially approached the east end of the runway', then 'attempted a second pass', during which the aircraft 'struck the trees and caught fire'. The pilot, identified in the press as a Spokane auto dealership owner, was killed. The accident happened in darkness (2115L). The aircraft was operating a flight from Felts Field, Spokane, Washington, reportedly to 'meet family members for a hunting trip'.

Designed and initially built by North American Aviation - some would say they were built with material bought to build more P-51's! Design then sold to Ryan in San Diego - several other builders in later years. A really rugged and dependable airplane; just not quite as fast as the Bonanza!!

The aircraft in the image is a Canadair CL-415, also known as a "Super Scooper". It is an amphibious aircraft used for aerial firefighting and is operated by the Italian Protezione Civile (Civil Protection).
The CL-415 is a twin-engine turboprop aircraft specifically designed for water bombing.
The CL-415 is an updated version of the older Canadair CL-215, with enhanced aerodynamics and a modernized cockpit.
For the guys who are wondering how I got this shot. I timed it well and was glued to the flight radar, locating the moon and flight path, and seeing if the flight plan would cross in front of the moon.

As a brand new Army aviator, I got to fly one of these for a couple of hours with an IP. What a kick in the pants after a year of flying an old L-19(aka O-1) Bird Dog. Almost made me wish that I'd gone in the AF, almost, but not really.

It truly is a testament to engineering vision and good design that this old airframe is worth investing the cash to upgrade the engines with every expectation of profitable operation in years to come.
How many other aircraft could claim something similar?
Congratulations Donald Douglas, wherever you are.
I guess to keep them out of public sight, these things were for a while test flown at CFB Shearwater in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. They would usually fly them at night. I lived not far away and with binoculars I could see them running up. Unfortunately I didn't have a long enough telephoto to get a decent shot.

Seems like a good concept but they are apparently rather accident prone.
Excellent pic!

Moon is exposed nicely showing lots of detail and the A320 has just enough motion smear to suggest it's really moving but no so much as to mess up its shape.
I really wonder for such a shot how on earth you time it so well? Do you set a shot of the moon then wait until (hopefully) something flies past it? I've seen a few of these now and the logistics of getting such fine shots really feels daunting.
