The third from last of the 199 Tigers built for the USN. Not sure about the authenticity of the colours, but this aircraft did fly with the Blue Angels in the early 1960s and also VT-23 before being SOC at MCAS Cherry Point in 1964. Ironically, the museum's other Tiger, an early F9F-9 (redesignated F-11F-1 in 1955), is painted in Blue Angels colours despite not having been used by them.

This long-standing monument at Orlando MCO commemorates the SAC operation here long before the current airport was developed on the site of McCoy AFB, which had B-52Ds based from 1961 to 1974. The base, which used to be Pinecastle AFB, was renamed in 1958 after Col McCoy who was killed in a B-47 crash nearby.

This 1-11 is an important one in that it survives as one of the few potentially flyable example remaining. First registered in 1967 as N270E, it served various US corporations and was sold to Rockwell International Corp in April 1971, becoming N44R, a registration previously used by the company on an F-27 and before that a CV-440, and later on a B727. Seen here arriving at Southend for attention by ATEL, it was again sold in 1977 as N524AC, changed to N87BL in 1996 and N999BW in 1998. It is now stored at Kansas City with an organisation called Tristar Experience.
