Some very interesting stuff here!
Buckeye trainer at Air Museum just outside Slaton.
An old two-seat F-101!
Phantom jet!
Above, you see something of historical interest that my wife spotted: it is a vintage South Western Bell utility manhole lid. This dates back to before the infamous breakup. Was THAT ever a bad decision! This was in downtown Slaton, in front of an old telephone switching center that is probably still in use. My wife knows a lot about such things.
F4 canopy-- I assume the ejection seat was disarmed...
This old Navy Jet was something new.
This poor old F-14 is slowly sinking into the ground. The Tomcat was pretty much a fiasco. What the Navy needed was the F-18. The swing wing idea died hard.
