Phantom Thunder – The Story Behind the Print
Phantom Thunder captures RF-4C Phantom 005 “Balls Five” during a high-speed low-level run over Pyramid Lake in the Nevada desert.
The scene has a direct connection with Michael Rondot: the original product record describes the aircraft being flown by a 192nd TRS pilot with Rondot in the rear seat, just below Mach 1 and at extremely low level over the lake.
The RF-4C was the reconnaissance version of the Phantom, carrying cameras for low-, medium- and high-level photographic reconnaissance. Aircraft from the Nevada Air National Guard’s 192nd TRS also participated in the Gulf War.
The print is signed by Michael Rondot.
