F-106A's from back to front: 59-0044, 57-0240, 59-0046, 59-0047 & 59-0038 of the 27th FIS Loring AFB ME at William Tell Air-to-Air Weapons Meet on the Tyndall AFB, FL flight line. The 1st Fighter website lists this as William Tell 1967, but Willy Tell 67 and 69 were cancelled due to the Vietnam War. The 27th was a participant in 1965 with these tail colors, the aft fuselage has no large number markings and in WT65 none of the participants aircraft had the fuselage numbers. So I think this would be 1965 WT and the 1st Fighter website must be a typo. [Photo by Pilot James Stewart, submitted by Roger D’Entremont]
