During a training flight in Feb. 1970 this aircraft was involved in a miraculous incident after entering an uncontrollable spin that forced the pilot to eject. Unpiloted, the aircraft recovered on its own, apparently due to the balance and configuration changes caused by the ejection, and miraculously made a gentle belly landing in a snow-covered field. After minor repairs, the aircraft was returned to service and last served with the 49 FIS before being retired to the museum in 1996.

Note the small titles on the rear fuselage 'World speed record 1525.95 mph December 15 1959' and 'Last of the sport models' written on the drop tank. This Dart arrived at AMARG during March 98 where it is stored with the PCN/Inventory No. AAFN0207.

Now preserved in its 329th FIS markings at (the publicly accessible) Century Circle adjacent to the West Gate at Edwards. After a long period in storage at AMARG she was acquired by the Air Force Flight Test Center Museum in 2003.

Montana ANG. Can you imagine this beauty being shot down by a missle--intentionally? That's exactly what fate held in store for this 2 seat F-106B of the 120th Fighter Interceptor Group. Converted to a QF-106 drone, it was destroyed 12/96 as a target aircraft.

This was the 133rd F-106 produced by Convair at San Diego in 1959 and flew with five different Fighter Interceptor Squadrons before reaching the 194th FIS at Fresno in 1974. Ten years later it went in storage at DM AFB but emerged in 1991 for conversion to a QF-106 drone, becoming Tyndall-based. It returned to DM in 1998 but was selected for preservation in the Aerospace Museum at Hill AFB, UT, where it has undergone a superb restoration for display in the marks of its first unit, the 456th FIS (Castle)

The F-106B was a two-seat fully combat capable trainer version of the Mach 2.3 Delta Dart and is seen here taxiing towards the end of its career with the 194th FIS. After withdrawal and a period at Andrews, it was carried as an underslung load by CH-54 Skycrane to Atlantic City IAP, NJ, where it was plinth-mounted in the colours of the local 177th FIS. It is wired up so that the external lights work at night and is one of five F-106B's displayed across the US

"There's an engine in there somewhere Al!" This smart Delta Dart, then with the 84th FIS, was w/o on 20.8.97 as a QF-106A drone. Deserved better

This F-106 served with the 5th Fighter Intercepter Squadron at Minot AFB, North Dakota, for a full 25 years, from 1960 to 1985. It survived a mid-air collision as well as conversion to QF-106 drone, and is now preserved.
