Was wondering. Whatever became of the F-105? I think there was a second jet nearby? F-101?

If I remember, I'll try to snap a photo the next time I go there. They are looking pretty sad.

I remember these when Gary started to work on them - are they part of the USAF 'gate gaurd' program or are they privately owned? I can't remember . . .

I seem to remember them being privately owned.
Would love to see a photo, Ryan. Shame they are so neglected though :(

I seem to remember a thread here on these two - I did a little searching but remember so little I can't find it - seems like there were a number of photos with that thread.
