Bell UH-1P, serial 63-13161, as she appeared at MASDC during October 1978, a little more than four years after her arrival from the USAF's 57th Fighter Wing at Nellis AFB, NV. She would remain in storage through December 1992.

A-6E, BuNo 164377, waits her turn to enter storage during May 1997. She would eventually be displayed on celebrity row before being scrapped in August 2018.

Here's a busy little photograph from April 1997 that includes: F-111, F-14, AV-8, OV-1, A-10, F-8, E-2, P-3, C-130, and 707.

This is F-4C, serial 63-7557, with Process Control Number (PCN) FP204, as seen during September 1989. Arriving in January of that year, she last flew with the 123rd FIS of the Oregon ANG. Every once in a while, I'm reminded that there are subtle ways to have fun at work. Here, a Star Trek-inspired employee decided to put an additional PCN on the aircraft as a tribute to the Enterprise A (NCC-1701A).
