Saw this in the news today, I don't have too much info yet but hope to track some down maybe with some help here. A town is getting there hands an a A3D Skywarrior. The news has some video which I can't watch with dial-up. It doesn't sound like they are flying one in from CA. That is what I was hopeing for.

It says it is coming from NYC...wonder if this is an Intrepid bird. I know MAPS is are getting at Tiger and A-7 from them.

Wonder why they are dumping airframes?

They must need more room for stunts like Robbie Knievel's jump over how many airframes. I suppose selling them doesn't move them fast enough?! :?

I can't believe they are getting rid of A/C. They have 2 tigers from what I recall, so I can see that. Maybe they want to crowd the deck with Concords and SR-71's and not Naval A/C? I don't get it. I also do get why they tried and got a Concord; They don't have the room for it (YET)
