Country: | Not uncommon with that plane. It's an old plane that is also a performance aircraft. Combine the 2 and you have the crew-chiefs headache! But when they run, oh YEAH!

Country: | I will have to do some digging on that one. Navy serial numbers are a bit more crytpic sometimes. Let me see what I can find. I can see that it was part of VA-176 on the USS Intrepid by the markings though.
