This F-105F flew combat missions in 1969-70 with the 354 TFS, 355 TFW out of Takhli RTAFB, Thailand. On 10 March 1984 it made the last flight of a F-105F when it was flown from Hill AFB, Utah to Chanute AFB. When the base closed in the early 1990s it was transferred to the Octave Chanute Museum. The museum closed in 2015, and sadly this a/c did not find a new home. It was scrapped in early 2019.

When this slide was taken Chanute AFB was still active. This aircraft was used as a ground instructional trainer, and when the AFB closed in 1993 it was transferred to the Octave Chanute Aerospace Museum. The museum painted it as a T-38 flown by the USAF Thunderbirds. When the museum closed in 2015 it was transferred to the Frost Museum of Science in Miami, Florida.

Chanute AFB was still active when I took this slide. This F-100C was redesignated a GF-100C in February 1963 and was used as a ground instructional airframe at Chanute AFB until September 1974. It then was painted in Thunderbird markings and put on display at the base. When the base closed it was transferred to the Chanute Air Museum. In 2009 it was transferred to the Prairie Air Museum in Bloomington, IL. where it is on display.
