The RF-101 was the first supersonic photo-reconnaisance aircraft and this particular example was one of the planes responsible for obtaining the images confirming that the missiles sites were being dismantled and so brought an end to the Cuban Missile Crisis. It subsequently served with the 45th TRS in Southeast Asia and then the 153rd TRS at Key Field, MS from where it was ferried to the National Museum of the USAF during Oct. 78 for display.

This P-38 never saw combat, rather was allocated to be an experimental airframe at Wright Field, OH and then at the end of WWII it was placed into storage. It is now on display with this unrestored finish at the super NASM Udvar-Hazy center.

This particular aircraft actually served in the USN with VX-4 as 77233 being one of 20 brand new B-17Gs allocated to the Cadillac II programme (land-based long-range Airborne Early Warning, command and control system) until replaced by WV-2 Warning Stars. In 1956 she was converted to a water bomber and flew with Butler Aviation as N5237V. After acquisition by the RAF Museum she was converted to 1944 USAAF configuration and displayed in markings representing the 94th BG, 8th AF based at Bury St. Edmunds.

The Americans really like to hype-up and build-up their displays, I've seen and heard this many times with the Thunderbirds and Blue Angels, and the Raptor display announcer was up there with the best of them.....however no amount of hype could have prepared me for the astonishing display provided at RIAT 2010 by this F-22.

Unfortunately we were not allowed to get on the other side of the apron to get some better shots of the last operational Starfighter unit in the USA. They all look the same but 14887 was built by Lockheed, 14889 by Messerschmitt and 14890 by Fokker.
