A beautiful 'gate guard' to the Palm Springs Air Museum, this TA-4J Skyhawk was originally built as a TA-4F. She flew with VC-8 out of Roosevelt Roads NAS, PR, from 1975 until she was struck off charge in 2003. I do like the cockpit canopy figures.

On display at the March Field Air Museum in October 1993 this F-84F Thunderstreak wore a spurious 71595 serial and a very questionable S.E.A. camouflage scheme as well as a stencil star-and-bar.

Back in October 1993 I think that the museum had recently moved from on-base to where it is located today. Many of the aircraft were then wearing questionable colour schemes as seen in this F-86H Sabre 53-1304 which has a sort of SEA camouflage scheme.
