Rick, whatever happened to the A-4 that Dave Strait (I think) tore up a time or two (I think he caught it on fire once on a ground run and ran it off the runway in the Dallas area another time)? Just curious.

Dave ran that jet, an A-4B I believe, off of the runway, through the fence, across a road, and I think through a ditch at Meacham, Ft Worth.

It was hurt pretty bad and had just been bought by Bob Lutz formerly of Chrysler now with GM. I believe he's the one who donated the plane to Kalamazoo who restored it to static were it still sits.
