General-Dynamics F-16A Block 15: Display 1995 - 1996 J-001, J003 en J-508.
During 1995 and 1996 the flying display was done by 306 squadron at Volkel Air Base.
There were two aircraft, J-003 and J-001 equipped with coloured stickers (then a novelty) applied on the vertical tail. However the stickers on the tail caused problems at high speeds, so it was finally decided to provide a sprayed colour scheme on F-16A J-508.
Also performed a flame-out during a training flight, a problem that frequently occurred in the PW-200 engine, with which it was equipped. F-16A J-508 had already the newer PW-220 engine, where the cause of the flame-outs was resolved.
The display pilot was Captain Richard Kamperman.
