The BuNo of this A-4M remains unknown, the aircraft belonged to VMA-214 Black Sheep ('WL') and carrier modex 14. The tail section was removed for maintenance. The 50% aircraft was pictured from the hip. Luckily, the full cockpit section just appeared on the slide.

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.

During a routine training flight near NAS Fallon (NV), two CH-46s from HMM-764 were executing a tactical formation flight but they came too close to eachother. One Frog turned in the formation over the other. The rotor blades of the lower helicopter chopped through the fuselage just behind the crew front door of this 153358, killing two Marines. The pilots managed to autorotate to the ground and survived. The crew in the other aircraft were uninjured. Here 153358, in the old green colours, can be seen at the flightline of El Toro.

This F-4S of Marine Fighter Attack Squadron (VMFA) 134 "Smoke" was retired in 1988 and rebuild as QF-4S after storage at MCAS Cherry Point (NC). The Phantom was delivered to the Naval Weapons Test Squadron Point Mugu late 1999. Planned to become an unmanned future aerial target, things went different for this airframe as it crashed with modex 124 on 20 April 2002 during the airshow of NAS Point Mugu (CA).

This A-4M sits on the platform of VMA-211 at MCAS El Toro (CA).
