Tomcat Sunset

Posted By Pinch

Spent a few days last week down at Oceana Naval Air Station as we started the last LAST farewell for the F-14.

The Tomcat Sunset ceremonies included a veritable cornucopia of events and parties, highlighted by a ceremonial Final Flight (rather underwhelming was the general consensus) on Friday and a big formal dinner on Saturday.

The last few jets will be flown out to their final resting places over the next week or so, the Boneyard or to some air museum somewhere.

I blogged a bit on the festivities and a bit on the legacy of the Tomcat over on the Instapinch ,so if you are thus inclined , go have a gander and a read.
