I lived in Orzinuovi, Italy for work for a few months.
They had an American fighter in the city. I cant remember what the damn thing was and cant find a picture right now. I was really surprised to see it. ETA: I think it was a thunderflash |

It's the last of the WWII subs that you still have to climb in and out of, no easy access. The interior is very well maintained and they fire up the engines once a year as well. The airport (Burke Lakefront) right next to the dock has a pair of F-4's displayed out front, one in Blue Angles colors and the other in Thunderbirds colors. Web Pic -

Richmond MO city park. Early on, before they put a fence around it, if you were small enough (like I was) you could crawl up the tailpipe and sit in the cockpit. I was also skinny enough to crawl through the intakes. We also had something this in our park for many years. The Safety Nazis removed it. We had a much larger howitzer of some sort, as well, that was removed eventually. I can't find a photo of it that looks like I remember. |

That TA-4 is sad. It has corroded through in spots, and is in a not very accurate marine paint scheme. It is actually BuNo 158722, one of the few aircraft that was tually delivered new from the factory to the Blue Angels. It was the primary #7 jet when they flew Skyhawks. The Lex's guns came from the USS Cabot when she was scrapped ! |
