..taken just before the F-104 chase plane rolled into the tail of the XB-70, causing both planes to crash and killing Joe Walker (F-104 pilot) instantly, killing Carl Cross (XB-70 co-pilot) on impact, and badly injuring Al White (XB-70 pilot) when his ejection capsule took a hard bounce on impact with the ground.Originally posted by ALLAN View Post

"World’s Last A-7 Corsair II attack aircraft retired from active service in Greece"
Maybe someone can post a few of these pics.
And to think these were built in Grand Prairie over at the LTV plant off Jefferson Street. When I worked at LTV Electrosystems in Garland (1967–1970), I would fly in the company mail plane over to Grand Prairie and walk thru the assembly line where these planes where being built. Quite an operation in those days!Mustangs previously owned:
