F-105B at Salt Lake City IAP?

Fri Jul 19, 2024 2:38 am

I'm trying to track down the fates of Thunderbird team aircraft and F-105B s/n 57-5814 is looking like the only possible survivor of the Thuds that flew with the team in 1964.

It was last noted at the 'Thud Out' ceremony in 1984 and supposedly went to display at the Salt Lake City IAP where it was eventually scrapped.

I can't find any reference to the latter and suspect it was instead scrapped at Hill AFB.

Any ideas anyone?

From what I can see so far, none of the Thunderbirds F-84G, F-84F or F-105B survive, which seems rather sad.
