It didn't look that bad last fall, although it could use a coat of paint.

The B-47E was still in Plattsburgh this summer and fall.

My question is what happened to the B-47 at Pease AFB in NH? That seemed to be in really bad shape, as was the KC-97.

The B-29 & B-52 seemed a bit better.

A-4 in Oriskany

There is indeed an A-4E in Oriskany, New York. There is a small park there with the A-4E on open display. It is in pretty good shape, as with most aircraft on outside display it has had all openings sealed, in the colors of an aircraft from the USS Oriskany.
