I was honored to work with Lt Scott "MacGruber" Lindahl and our U.S. Navy TAC DEMO at the 40th annual Valiant Air Command & Tico Warbird Airshow, on a shoot with Jim "Torc" Tobul in his "Korean War Hero" F4U-4 Corsair and Scott "Scooter" Yoak in his QuickSilver P-51 Mustang (together known as The Class of 45).
Flying a F/A-18C Hornet, the legacy demo plane flown by VFA-106 pays tribute to VFA-15 Valions and the A-7E Corsair II.
Such a shoot had never been done before, thanks again to everyone who helped make it happen!

Amazing Photo Finish. I served with VFA 15 from 2014 to 2017 including the 2014 deployment in support of Operation Enduring Freedom and Inherent Resolve. I was a part of the final 20 sailors left behind when the squadron was disbanded just before going on terminal leave. It's amazing to see the tribute aircraft after all these years. I worked as an aviation structural mechanic and was a part of the three-man team that painted our tribute aircraft 305. I would love to get the original of this photo to blow up and frame if possible? Please do let me know if this is a possibility.
