They arrive at each show site on Wednesday to ensure everything is in good order tor the airshow. The six show pilots and aircraft arrive on Thursday. 158722 is currently on display at the USS Lexington Museum in Corpus Christi, Texas.

One of the last operational TA-4Js of the Blues was pictured at its homebase Pensacola.

The current whereabout of this real 152722 is unknown.
