This is somewhat of a strange question but I have to ask.

Is there a way for me to find out the Buno of the aircraft in my squadron when I was in it, even better my air-wing. At the time I never thought of collecting this type of information but I would love to have it when I go to scan my Navy pictures. So that some day in the future I can walk up to an aircraft in a museum and say that is one of my a/c.

I has able to identify one of my a/c but I have another 16 to identify (we lost 3 and transferred a few more).

Go here for an excellant list of F-14 s/n and squadron info...

http://www.anft.net/f-14/

I remember there were tips for other types with some similar info on this site at one time. I don't know if it still there. You may want to look around and email the Webmaster with questions.

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.

Thanks that will help with VF-213. Some great info on that site. I remember when the First Navy Female Pilot was killed w/ 213. I did not know the a/c she was flying was a Mig killer.

I found this site, something to push Kelly (my wife) closer to the Edge :shock:

Yep I know about that one. I used to contribute, but didn't often see new items posted so I don't bother any more.
