    Sharp looking! I didn't realize the Angels flew with Sparrows - inert I suppose, but nonetheless...! I don't seem to remember the Thunderbirds carrying them.

    Phantastic! It must have been awesome to see the team flying the F-4.

    Thanks Greg and Robert, definitely inert, forward filled with oil and rear dye for the smoke, they are a phantastic beast.

    It seems the Thunderbirds did carry Sparrows for smoke oil but they had they're fins removed making them less obvious.
