In early April 1975 USS Hancock was temporarily being used as a helicopter carrier in preparation for the Saigon evacuation which occurred at the end of April. In order to keep Hancock's Carrier Air Wing 21 qualified for carrier operations, the USS Midway was used by the air wing for refresher training. This F-8J had just trapped aboard Midway and was taxiing over to the starboard forward catapult for launch. This F-8J was retired on 5 November 1975.

This VT-7 TA-4J is awaiting being positioned on the USS Lexington's starboard catapult. Student Naval Aviators were required to perform two touch an go and six arrested landings in order to carrier qualify with the TA-4J. All carrier qualification flights were solo, with no instructor in the aircraft. This was near the end of the advanced jet syllabus. This a/c was lost near NAS Meridian, Mississippi on 8 June 1986 due to engine failure. Both crew ejected safely.

This three-engined heavy transport helicopter held the distinction of being the most powerful helicopter to be built in Europe as well as being the world's fastest. The Super Frelon (Super Hornet) was a more powerful development of the original SE.3200 Frelon, which had failed to enter production. In December 1962, this Super Frelon prototype made the type's maiden flight and around 110 of both civilian and military versions were produced. The type was in service in France with the Aéronavale until April 2010.

TA-4J of VT-22 over the Sierra Nevada Mountains enroute from NAS Alameda, CA. to NAS Kingsville, TX. I took this slide from another VT-22 TA-4J. This flight required a fuel stop at Albuquerque, New Mexico as the TA-4J did not have enough range with adequate fuel reserves to make it in one leg to Kingsville.

Loaded out with four live 500 lb. Mk.82 bombs (two under each wing). A well worn but reliable A-7A, 153152 was with VA-93 from 1973 through 24 April 1977. It arrived at MASDC on 1 June 1977, and was given a new life when it was converted to an A-7P for the Portuguese Air Force. It was lost in a mishap on 4 December 1989 near Vila Vocosa, Portugal.

There aren't many active F-5s in the U.S. Military inventory anymore. This example is wearing a grey Soviet style colourscheme with a Red Star on the tail. It is used as an aggressor and operated by VMFT-401 'Snipers'. Originally delivered to the USAF as 73-0855 and a South Vietnam survivor.

Taken on the carrier ramp side of NAS Cubi Point. The carrier ramp consisted of a hangar surrounded by a large a/c parking area. This area was for use by aircraft carrier air wings while the carrier was in port. The air wing aircraft (normally not all) would be flown off before the carrier reached port. This allowed for flying to take place during the in port period. CVW-14 was assigned to the USS Enterprise when the slide was taken.
