Thank you Spiros @fiveten. Maybe someone will be inspired to build a Colorado ANG F-100.

My father was a flight surgeon with the 12th Tactical Fighter Squadron based on Okinawa in the early 1960’s. He loved the Hun and got a good amount of stick time. His Wing Commander and friend was Frank Gabreski. Thanks for sharing these great pics of such an iconic Cold Warrior!

Last time I saw a Hun in flight was as a kid in 1969 on Waikiki Beach in Hawaii watching a performance by the Thunderbirds.

That would have been awesome to see the ThunderBirds flying F-100s !
My dad had a friend that flew those in the Colorado Air Guard. One glorious day ,in about 1973 , his friend buzzed our house ( we lived in a rural area). I still can see it in my mind . It’s the only time I saw a living F-100.

AWESOME photos Jay. The F-100 always looks great in NMF with colorful squadron markings. The Thunderbirds F-100's looks great! Thanks for posting these.

Thanks ,Morné @mornem ! I collected most all those as a member of the Colorado Air Guard. F-100s are one of my favorite jet fighters.
