"They aren't all beautiful, boys!"
The final resting place of BuNo 138922 from VAQ33.
(dateline 5/3/04)
They originally had 2 Skywarriors. One was being transferred to a museum
somewhere in New Jersey by helicopter sky crane which broke loose and dropped
the Whale in the woods totaling it out..............this was about 12 years
ago. The last Skywarrior they had was scrapped/destroyed because the
environmentalists in the area were concerned about pollution off of the old
aircraft. So
Skywarrior #138922 is no more
