Like I said simple, but I had never seen a pic of a Wirraway in US markings before.

Country: | The tail in the forground is that of an F-101B Voodoo, the other is an A-26 Invader. (B-26 after WWII)
That photo shows the Strategic Air and Space Museum near Omaha, Nebraska. You can see a full photo of the Voodoo here... http://www.airliners.net/open.file/283706/L/

Country: | The one in the back is a A-26 Invader. You can tell by the tail section and the black radio antenna on the tail boom.

Country: | 49th FIS, based at Griffis AFB, although I'm not sure if the Voodoos carried that rudder flash or not.
