    T-38 Talon_CS

    This is the color scheme I use on my T-38. It is from one of the chase planes used by the Air Force at Edwards Air Force Base. Don't look for weathering here, like the Thunderbirds, it is very highly maintained. It is no Thunderbird, but I like it. Note: My favorite Thunderbird...
