The VC-6A was primarily used to transport President Johnson and his family between Bergstrom AFB, TX and the family ranch near Stonewall. The aircraft became informally known as the 'Lady Bird Special', a play on the childhood nickname "Lady Bird" of First Lady Claudia Johnson. This plane was retired to the NMUSAF in September 1985 and is now on display in the Presidential Gallery within the newer, fourth building.

SAM 26000 on display in the Presidential Gallery at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force. This icon has been a part of so much history, serving eight American presidents from Kennedy to Clinton. It was this aircraft that carried President Kennedy to Dallas and brought his body back to Washington, D.C. in Nov 1963. Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson was sworn in as the new president on board. The livery of the first presidential jet designed by First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy and famous industrial designer Raymond Loewy remains unmatched.

Ex-USN F-4N 151424, originally ordered as an F4H-1, but redesignated F-4B-16-MC prior to delivery. The original dataplate is still present, which reveals she was built under contract number NOW63-0062, and accepted by the USN 19 November 1963. However, it also gives the c/n as 6341 for unknown reasons. Marked as F-4D 63-7660, of the 906th TFG at Wright-Patterson AFB during the 1980s.

Front seater's instrument panel. This is actually the cockpit section of F-4N 151424, which was used during the filming of the ABC TV Series "Call to Glory" for cockpit scenes. It is displayed as F-4D 66-7660, assigned to the 906th TFG at Wright-Patterson AFB in the 1980s. This wasn't my first time sitting in this airplane, but the last time it happened I was quite a bit shorter.

On display at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force. The Erla Haube canopy is visible along with a taller tail unit. This is a U-4 that came equipped with the MK 108 30mm Motorkanone firing through the propeller hub. Previously a G-6, it was re-manufactured as a G-14 or G-10 that served as "Black 2" with II/JG 52. After being surrendered, it was shipped to the USA. The fighter is painted as a G-10 of JG 300 "Hermann" that was formed in June 1943. It wears the Reichsverteidigung blue-white-blue band of JG 300 on the fuselage.

On display at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force. From traditional bombing, the two-seat F-100F developed into Iron Hand, Fast FAC and weather recce roles. The first Wild Weasel I unit was the 354th TFS flying the F-100F from Takhli using APR-25/26 RHAW against SA-2 and AAA sites. This F-100F was a Misty FAC assigned to the 416th TFS, 37th TFW at Phu Cat AB and was flown by two eventual Chiefs of Staff. The only Misty FAC Medal of Honor recipient was Maj. George "Bud" Day, one among almost a quarter of the 155 Misty pilots to be shot down.
