Default Re: TA-4 Skyhawk back seat ride

Yes, you are correct Rick. Govt dropped almost all the of the mothballed Tcats into tub grinders out in the desert to keep the parts out of the black market and ultimately ending up in Iran. Only hope is that some trillionair gets one out of Iran intact someday, long shot at best. Musclecar Review shot my car out at the abandoned Calverton LI facility where they built F14s back in the day. 2 10,000 ft, solid concrete, military spec runways just wasting away. Had a lot of friends and family involved with the F14, one of Grummans finest works
