Yes it's an F-101, however the other A/C is an F-4 Phantom

Todd

at a quick blurry glance it looked like A-4 wings..,

Those aircraft must have flown from that field at some point in time..,

I wonder if they are static or just hulks?

Was going to say F-4 too.

What is the helicopter, H-34?

You can see them with Live search too, but when you switch to "Birds Eye" view, they disappear. And there is no signage on the hanger

Here is the location

Don't see much of anything on the outdoor AC

I knew you guys would know the answer!!! Collings is coming to this location in a couple of weeks. B-24, B-25 and B-17. My brother is hitching a ride in one of them.., I think the B-17.

Thanks again!

I know this is an aviation forum.., but aircraft did fly off of carriers.., if you go to google maps and find the aircraft carrier on display in Corpus Christi.., then you go way up the shipping channel to the NW of her.., you will find another carrier that is either being torn up or put back together.., any ideas what she is (was)..., you all seem like good detectives so i thought i might throw this into the mix.., there has to be some Navy slag here somewhere>>> HAH!~!!

thanks! and sorry if this is not the RIGHT post place.., Thanks again

The F-4 and the H-34 moved just across 99th, and about 100m west. Don't know about the F-101.

Live Search Birds Eye

USS Oriskany

I have these airframes documented here...
Aerial Visuals - Location Dossier - Texas Air Museum - San Antonio Chapter / Stinson Chapter

You can use the locator to ID aircraft if you have lat and lon coordinates (imbeded in your Google Maps Link). To do so just go to...
Aerial Visuals - Locator
...and past the coordinates into the "Coordinates or Address" category. Provide a range (I used 5 mi in this example). Click the Search button and presto! In this case you are looking at an F-4 and F-101. Serials provided via the first link.

Do you want to find locations of displayed, stored or active aircraft? Then start with the The Locator.
Do you want to find or contribute to the documented history of an aircraft? If so then start with the Airframes Database.

I can verify the information above. I work across the field at one of the FBOs - until a few weeks from now right after the Collins stop. Here are some shots. The Texas Air Museum may look a bit run down, but is a good visit. They have a shortage of volunteers and folks with ideas, in my opinion - but plenty of opportunity if someone would have the time and care to volunteer.

Here are some shots:






Here's the jewel of their collection.










In this last shot you can see the hangars where I work currently.

Is that the 101 that used to be between the road and the east side of 32?
If you are ever in SA I recommend stopping in to the Texas Air Museum, the collection includes a FW-190, Katherine Stinson's Bleriot, and a B-36 forward upper turret.
