Built as a F4H-1 by McDonnell at Saint Louis and redesignated F-4B in 1962. With VF-301 in 1975 and upgraded to F-4N. To VMFA-323 then VF-21 'Freelancers' and deployed aboard USS Ranger and USS Coral Sea. Written off on the latter carrier in January 1981. Preserved at San Diego then at Champlin Fighter Museum here at Falcon Field till that closed in 2003. Whilst many of their aircraft went to the Museum of Flight in Seattle, this Phantom stayed at Mesa and looks superb displayed in its colourful period markings

Stored unconverted in the original USN colour scheme at Chico, CA from the mid-1960s - Aero Union planned to use it as a tanker but not converted. I photographed it derelict at Chico with civil registration N9993Z crudely painted on, in a line with three others in October 1979. To Confederate Air Force in 1988
