71-237 (cn 7225) The Phantom flew as part of the USAF Heritage Flight. The F-4 was so loud! Man it was a treat to see this bird perform!! It is from the 82nd Aerial Target Squadron at Tyndall AFB, FL.

A lot of the old F-4s are being setup like this one, where they are remotely flown and students use them for target practice. This one was allowed to show its glory a few more times before being shot down.

Very nice! My roommate got a back seat ride in one of these around central Florida circa 1978. His Mach 2 ride was a thank you for doing something for the leadership at McDill AFB.
