The pilot’s cockpit of a McDonnell Douglas RF-4E
Phantom II of the Greek Air Force. Six of these were
delivered to the 348th ‘Eyes’ Squadron of the 110
Combat Wing at Larissa in 1979, followed by 29
more ex-Luftwaffe RF-4Es in 1993.

A pair of Turkish Air Force F-4Es approach the
coast.These greatly upgraded aircraft may well
become the last Phantoms in service as they are
expected to continue until at least 2015,
perhaps longer.
