A formation of four fighters participating in the NATO exercise “Reforger ’82” fly over the cloud shrouded Neuschwanstein Castle on the German/Austrian border in September 1982. The flight of three U.S. Air Force McDonnel Douglas F-15C Eagles from the 33rd Tactical Fighter Wing, based at Eglin Air Force Base, Florida (USA), is lead by a German Luftwaffe Lockheed F-104G Starfighter.
