Republic F-84 Aircraft Collection
Here is a collection of placemarks for the F-84 aircraft.
This collection comprises of the Republic F-84 Thunderjet, Republic F-84F Thunderstreak and Republic RF-84F Thunderflash.
I have placemarked as many aircraft as I have been able to find, so far, and included aircraft that have already been found, posted and placemarked by other Google Earth Community members.
I have used several other sources and have credited them where appropriate.
Without the hard work of other Google Earth Community members, enthusiasts compiling lists of aircraft locations and photographers, this collection would not have been possible.
Not forgetting the museums, other custodians, private owners and the volunteers who maintain and look after the aircraft. Without them the aircraft would not be here to find.
More information regarding the F-84 can be found at the Fighter-Planes website.
Many thanks for all their hard work.
All the very best, ploppy.

My apologies if the technical data does not match that of your sources but there are many differences in the data available for these aircraft on the web.

Please note that the links to Jeocities Forgotten Jets website do not work at present. As a major source for finding many of the aircraft in this collection, I hope it will become available again soon.
