GSnell Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 I was stationed at a top secret Air Base in Vietnam 68-69 with CIA directed Laos/Cambodia missions using F4's. One of our planes was tail code HC 760. I've had that plane built to exact specs based on the pictures I have of it. I can not find any information on the HC tail codes. Who out there knows how to find info on a particular plane? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whiskey Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 49th TFWHolloman AFB, New Mexico (HA, HB, HC, HD and later HO tail codes) The 49th Tactical Fighter Wing has a long history, tracing its ancestory back to the 49th Fighter Group of WWII fame. The 49th FG was decativated following the war. In 1948 a new unit was activated as the 49th Fighter Bomber Wing and redesignated as the 49th Tacticatl Fighter Wing. From 1948 until 1966 the 49th had operated F-51s, F-80s, F-84s (the straight wing variety), F-100D/Fs and F-105D/Fs. In 1966, the 49th transitioned from Thuds to the F-4Ds, which flown until 1978 when F-15A/Bs replaced the Phantom II. The unit currently flies F-117s and AT-38s out of Holloman AFB, New Mexico. http://www.angelfire.com/dc/jinxx1/Phantoms/USAFF4C_D.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites
