Photo Comment

At the time of my visit to the Museum of Aviation, it was re-organising away from a museum of aviation to really become a museum of aviation for Georgia. Many exhibits with no connection to the state had already been moved on and perhaps this fate was about to befall this Thunderjet. Some sources say it is now on display at the Texas Military Forces Museum in Austin, TX. and others at the Niagara Aerospace Museum, Niagara Falls, NY. Any corrections/further info always welcome.
