A FY82 F/A-18B serving Fleet Replacement Squadron Marine Fighter Attack Training Squadron (VMFAT) 101 "Sharpshooters". The Hornet, seen here on its way to the runway of homebase El Toro, was transferred to the US Naval Flight Demonstration Squadron "Blue Angels" in 2000 and received tailnumber 7. It was damaged in 2008 but repaired and was eventually preserved at Detroit Science Museum (MI) in 2010 but moved to Chino's Yanks Air Museum in 2012.

Three brand-new Hornets passed MCAS El Toro (CA) on this day during their delivery flight to MCB Kaneohe Bay (HI). This 163772/DB-02, ordered in FY87, had a USMC career from August 1989 onwards. It flew with VMFA-235, -232, -212 and was transferred to the US Navy because it was less stressed in comparisation with US Navy carrier operated Hornets. It was assigned to VFA-86, -136, -125 and -122 before it returned to the USMC. It was then assigned to VMFAT-101 before it was retired to AMARC on 14 September 2018.

The Green Knights of VMA(AW)-121 - normally coded "VK-xx", just returned from a WestPac and Indian Ocean deployment with the USS Ranger (CV-61) and within Carrier Air Wing TWO that lasted from 24 February to 24 August 1989. BuNo 154167 was delivered to the US Navy in 1968. It was transferred to the USMC and later returned to the US Navy. After a storage period at Andrews (MD) from May 1998 it was handed over to the National Air and Space Museum, Steven F Udvar-Hazy Center (VA) where it is preserved since. 154167 is seen here returning from a mission at El Toro, check those nice airbrakes!

Hot pit refueling of a VMFA-323 "Death Rattlers" Hornet at homebase El Toro. This Block 21 (Lot 9), fiscal year 1985 Hornet was delivered to the US Navy on 10 Mar'87 and served VFA-12. It was later transferred to VFA-161 and then to the USMC VMFA-323 (as pictured), VMFA-531, again VMFA-323, then VMFA-314 and returned to the US Navy in 1996 with the NSAWC. It again was moved to the USMC with VMFA-142 and sadly crashed during an 1v1 air combat manoeuvring mission near Comanche (TX) after it entered an uncontrolled low-rate flat spin on 3 December 1999. The pilot ejected safely

Three brand-new Hornets passed MCAS El Toro (CA) on this day during their delivery flight to MCB Kaneohe Bay (HI). This 163770/DB-01, ordered in FY87, had a USMC career from August 1989 onwards. It flew with VMFA-235, -232, 212, VMFAT-101, and was then transferred to the US Navy because the airframe was less-stressed in comparison with the US Navy carrier operated Hornets. Â It flew with VFA-81, VFA-94 and VFA-106 before it was retired to AMARG on 30 June 2014.

This FY83 Hornet is seen during some line maintenance in one of the hangars at homebase El Toro. Its predecessors within VMFA-323 "Death Rattlers" are painted on the wall. 162434 flew during its career only with VMFA-323 and VMFA-112 as it crashed with the latter on 21 April 2004. The aircraft came into serious troubles when flying a night mission from MCAS Miramar. Some 119 miles from that base and 20 miles from MCAS Yuma (AZ) contact was lost with the aircraft and pilot over the Imperial Valley desert south of Glamis. The pilot got killed in this crash.

Ready for another flight, this A-6E was delivered to the US Navy as A-6A in 1971. It was transferred to the USMC in 1989 and started to serve Marine Attack Squadron (All Waether) 242 "Bats". Later on it was returned to the US Navy and from that massive force retired to AMARC on 22 July 1996 and received inventory code 5A0203. It left for HVF West Tucson in October 2015 and was scrapped.
