Thanks for posting the link iceman49!

That's awesome! What year? When did the A4s get retired?

Awesome find! Did not know there was a flyable F4. I think it's interesting that it is much harder to get American aircraft parts than Soviet parts. I could understand defense reasons, but sheesh....but why make it harder to fly American aircraft than foreign???

I've always wondered what a person could procure from AMARC. Even if you wanted to save an airplane to make as a static display. Anybody know? Also, as a Guard guy, can I go out, show my military ID, and just go look around at the planes?
