Dont know if these already been viewed. F-51? at bridgeport, old Chance Vought building in background.

Hi Ken;
Great pics of the F-51!
It may have been one of the two that the US Army operated in the early 1970's as chase aircraft for the Lockheed AH-56A Cheyenne helicopter trials.
What year was the pic taken?

Maybe some Army General used it as transportation to visit the Stratford Army Engine Plant (old Vought factory)!
