59-0082 (cn 8-24-118) Displaying additional fuselage markings that may indicate assignment to the squadron commander, F-106A 90082 is from the 49th Fighter Interceptor Squadron at Griffiss AFB, New York. Typical of those units that operated the 'six’, the exterior finish was nothing less than immaculate, despite the aircraft being more than 20 years old. |

78-0533 / ZZ (cn 522/C066) Still with us today, albeit in much reduced numbers, the F-15 Eagle was a newcomer to William Tell competition in 1982, with examples provided by three major Air Force commands. Displaying the badges of all three assigned squadrons (12th, 44th and 67th Tactical Fighter Squadron), this particular aircraft hails from the 18th Tactical Fighter Wing at Kadena, Okinawa. |

59-0079 (cn 8-24-209) Pretty tails all in a row – a sequential run of F-106As from the 49th Fighter Interceptor Squadron. In times past, the fin badge would have been that of Air Defense Command, but by 1980, this organisation was history, with former assets now assigned to Tactical Air Command, whose badge is carried on the tail. |

58-0290 (cn 663) Caught on the transient line in 1980, the imposing bulk of the Voodoo is captured in this view of a visiting F-101F from the Texas ANG’s 147th Fighter Interceptor Group at Ellington. The Voodoo was still a fairly common sight in 1980, but within two years, the only operational Voodoos were those that continued in service with Canada. |

63-7576 (cn 625) Raring to go… Pilot and Weapon System Officer of a Michigan Phantom wait clearance to taxi at the start of a William Tell mission. An air combat manoeuvring instrumentation pod is visible on the inboard pylon, while in the background F-101s and F-106s from other participants stand idle waiting their turn to see some action. |

64-0973 (cn 1445) Heading back to the flight line at the 1980 William Tell meet, this North Dakota ANG F-4D from the “Happy Hooligans” at Fargo tows its colourful braking chute past F-106 Delta Darts and F-101 Voodoos from Guard units in Massachusetts and New York. |

56-1443 The previous generation of aerial targets was provided by the F-102 Delta Dagger, the rather more portly predecessor to the Delta Dart. This QF-102A was one of the dwindling number of survivors that still lingered at Tyndall in 1982. By the time of the next William Tell competition in 1984, all had gone. |

59-0059 (cn 8-24-188) Elegance personified… Without doubt the most handsome of all the celebrated “Century Series”, the F-106A Delta Dart just looked so right, especially when viewed from an elevated position. Tyndall’s control tower was about as elevated as you could get without actually flying and the clean lines of a 318th Fighter Interceptor Squadron 'Six’ are displayed to advantage in this study of one returning to the flight line on completion of a William Tell sortie. |
