This A-4B was assigned to the Naval Air Reserve Training Unit at NAS New Orleans. It wasn't on display at the airshow but was close enough to photograph. Note it is in maintenance, with the tailpipe partially out and a large fuselage panel removed. It eventually was converted into an A-4Q for the Argentine Navy as s/n 0657. It is currently on display at the Argentine Navy Headquarters in Buenas Aires.

On 21 October 1967 at the NAS New Orleans Airshow this F-11A had an engine flameout just after taking off. It settled back onto the runway and continued off into a field beyond the end of the runway. The pilot was unhurt. The a/c was deemed unrepairable and remained at the base. It was then restored for display and mounted at the entrance to the base. It has since been replaced by a F/A-18 Hornet and is now on display at the airport in Reserve, LA.

Although still wearing the Cornell Aeronautical Laboratories logo, N700A was owned by Bill Fornof when the slide was taken. He had purchased the aircraft earlier in 1969. Mr. Fornof, in fact, used this aircraft for his airshow performance on the date the slide was taken. N700A was built in 1950 as a Grumman owned and operated civilian G-58, and never saw USN service. It was sold to Cornell in 1959, who sold it to Mr. Fornof in 1969.
