Photo Comment

At that time, this Sea Knight was provided with a brand new colour scheme. The CH-46F was seen at the flightline of homebase El Toro (CA). Marine Medium Helicopter Squadron (HMM) 764 "Moonlights" ('ML-xxx'), a US Marine Corps Reserve unit, was reloacted to Edwards in 1999 and eventually transferred as the first HMM-reserve unit to MV-22B.
