RF-80/FP-80A
Posted by jpriceusmc on Thursday, February 5, 2004 12:39 PM
Looking for some help on cockpit pictures of the RF-80A/FP-80A. Seems like they're impossible for me to find...The "P" models & "A" model didn't have an ejection seat...so any help with photos or a direction to go is greatly appreciated!

Have a back-up plan, because the first one probably won't work.

Here is a pic I found in a Shooting Star book. The caption calls it the cockpit you're looking for
Hope it helps

Thanks!

It's a start, since I didn't have anything...which book did this come from?
