Photo Comment

This Hot Rod was delivered to the USMC in 1970 and served VMAT-203, H&MS-32, VMAT-102, VMA-311, VMA-214, VMA-211, and VMA-214 before it was put into storage at AMARC on 7 July 1989. It received inventory code 5A558 on the arrival ramp of the storage depot (as pictured). The Skyhawk was selected for a Foreign Military Sale (FMS) to Argentina and was removed from the storage depot on 6 September 1995. It was flown over a Lockheed Martin facility in July 1996 and then delivered to Argentia as C-909.
