I have been scanning some old slides and came across some slides of the Yf-17that were being thrown in the trash when the F-18L was cancelled. They show some demonstration weapons loadouts for F-18A development. The earlier ones with the aircraft in silver paint are from 1975 while the camo paint is from March 1976. Here are the 1975 images

Thank goodness you had the fortitude to retrieve them BillRo!!
