Continuing the work that Brad Pilgrim has done with static displays at military bases throughout the midwest, here's my contribution from Vance AFB in Enid, Oklahoma.

There is also both a T-37 and a T-38 on display here, but didn't think they were warbid-y enough for this forum.

I live just about 45 miles from Vance, but I have never been there or seen those on display. Thanks for posting the pictures!


I see a LOT of Vance airplanes flying overhead, but have never seen their static models. :lol:

Hoss...so you know how we've been looking for a reasonably priced BT-13 or T-6 project? I think I found a couple...RIGHT IN YOUR NEW BACK YARD!

Hell, nobody will notice that Texan 'missing'....
