Re: Tucson International and Arizona NG 19 Jul 1991
Hello Barthie,
"080" would be 53-0809 F-86L (built as F-86D) which lay outside at Tucson IAP for many years at the mercy of sandstorms etc. I cannot trace a c/n, perhaps someone else could oblige?
The MASDC inventory id for the H-34 would be 3H018, for the H-1 the masdc id. might be XA301?.
having partly solved only one item, reposting for another try might be appropriate?
Best reguards,
J.

Many thanks we've taken Sabre, c/n 201-243, and my son will research the choppers further.
Re: Tucson International and Arizona NG 19 Jul 1991
The first three F-16's are almost certainly part of the KLu detachment that were operating with the 162 TFG Arizona ANG. So they were:-
J-229 / 78-0229 c/n 6D-18
J-242 / 78-0242 c/n 6D-31
J-257 / 78-0257 c/n 6D-46
I noted all three with the unit back in April 1990.

I went to Tucson airport on the 26th October,1990 and looking through your list, i have 'HB108' as an ex RCAF C-45 and also have a UH-1 with the last three of it's serial as '301'. I also noted two B-26 Invaders 435780 and 435901.

Thanks again.
Re: Tucson International and Arizona NG 19 Jul 1991
Hi again, "74629" was N74629, born as a Beech AT-11 41-27603 c/n 1448 (credit to Geoff Goodall's beech 18 production lists for info). It lay at Tucson IAP for many years and was reported there until April 1994.
