Summary

Description
English: RF-80A Serial 45-8391 of the 160th Tactical Recon Squadron, Toul Air Base France, 1952. Note: the author of the German magazine Flugzeug Profile No.64 "Lockheed P-/F-80 Shooting Stars - Die ersten amerikanischen Jets in Deutschland", page 38, said: The photo of the RF-80A-5-LOs was taken at Neubiberg AB, S-E of Munich, june 1952 (not at Toul AB in France). The USAFE squadron is the 160th TRS(Ph-J), 117th TRG at Fürstenfeldbruck AB, Upper Bavaria, West-Germany.

Deutsch: Das Foto der RF-80A-5-LO (FT-391, s/n 45-8391), 160th TRS(Ph-J), wurde im Frühsommer 1952 nicht in Toul-Rosieres/Frankreich, sondern in Neubiberg AB bei München aufgenommen, und zwar vom damaligen Hallenvorfeld aus erhöhter Position, vermtlich aus dem 1. Stock eines Betriebsgebäudes in süd-süd-östlicher Blickrichtung, d.h. in Ri. des Ortsteils Ottobrunn. Am oberen Bildrand, links der Bildmitte ist ein weiss getünchter Kirchturm zu erkennen: Es dürfte sich mit hoher Wahrscheinlichkeit um die St. Otto Kirche von Ottobrunn handeln. Der damals noch wenig erschlossene Ortsteil/Gemeinde Ottobrunn war von allen Seiten von Waldflustücken umsäumt, was am Bildhorzont des Fotos ebenfalls gut zu erkennen ist! Siehe hierzu die hist. topogr. Karte 1:25.000 auf BayernAtlas, Ausgabe 1956, vom Flugplatz Neubiberg incl. einer zus. Zeichnung der wahrscheinlichen Aufnahmesituation des Fotographen der USAF von 1952: https://v.bayern.de/spxVQ .
