This Shooting Star was built at Burbank as a P-80C-1-LO and delivered to the USAF as 47-1397 but subsequently transferred to the Navy with BuNo 33850 as a TO-1 (redesignated TV-1 in 1950). Now preserved as a gate guard at Merced but in these ficticious USAF markings. This photo is copyright © Alastair T. Gardiner, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
