We went on a little vacation to Corpus this past week & went aboard the USS Lexington ( an old Essex Class Carrier) Took some photos in front of the plane he worked on. Phantom F4B. It was really cool, he showed my daughter's what swiches he flipped prior to a cat launch...they loved it..

Nice photo snakeyes. Interesting how that plane was part of the USAF....for less than a month. https://www.planespotters.net/airframe/Boeing/737/29891/N365SR-EG-G

What kind of airline doesn't put their name on the fuselage?

Nevermind...I just discovered that Janet Airlines IS operated for the USAF. (JANET = Just Another Non Existent Terminal)

Simply put, a Shuttle for DOD workers, AF personnel and Contractors heading to the "Ranch"
we have one that lands at Eddies every moring at 0640 Hrs, return flight form a long night shift.
I am not allowed to snap a pic of it until I retire...LOL
