Very smart looking Intruder.....
That Jolly Rogers Tomcat, Victory 202, is absolutely gorgeous.
It always irks me to see museum aircraft sitting outside. I know buildings are pricey, but it still bugs me especially after Ivan damaged so many of the Museum of Naval Aviation's aircraft that were sitting on the flight line.
Particularly some of the rarer pieces in the collection....the Vigi, the P2V Truculent Turtle, etc....(me and a buddy actually got into the P5 Marlin outside and sat up in the flight station....hey it was open, prolly still is...and pissed off a very angry colony of wasps)
There were also several dozen A4 tailhooks just sitting propped up against the fence as well...this was 8 years ago.
The old straight wing FJ Fury that is inside now was outside for a long time when I was a kid there in the mid 80s...
I know of this SMIB museum...!!
Kinda funny how they already have an F-35 on display before it even hits the fleet.
