kstater94 Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Hey there Ken Just out of curiousity, how many signatures do we need? Who will this petition go to? Or Is this just something to walk up to a museum with to show how many people out there would like it displayed? Thanks John Link to post Share on other sites

phantom Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 I'm, #100.....Do I win the other plane that flew that day???!!!! :D Link to post Share on other sites
RipVW Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 (edited) I'm stunned!!!! Thank you ARC Team for Stepping Up!!! What an awesome grass roots effort!!! Every member get two more members to take note and go to the petition site. ARC is now 7,500 members strong - If every ARC member signs the petition, that would create an awesome groundswell to preserve and display 77-0102!! I talked up the history of this aircraft to everyone I met at AMARC on Wednesday, from the Gate Guard to the PAO. Few if any knew the historical significance of this Eagle - Now they All do!! I'm hoping the recognition of this jet spreads as rapidly through official channels as it has through ARC. An interesting aside I learned just yesterday - AMARC falls under AFMC, and AFMC is currently commanded by Lt General Gabreski. Is this name familiar to anyone?? - This is Gabby's daughter-in-law and she's a three-star! For those history buffs, in addition to 28 victories in Europe and an additional 6 in Korea, Gabby was stationed in Hawaii during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, and got airborne in a P-40 just after the attack! Needless to say, I forwarded a copy of the "Save 102" memo to HQ AFMC. Thanks to Ken for working up the petition effort. I'll continue to work with my contacts at various museums and at AMARC to have this Eagle properly saved and displayed!

M'Dog Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Signed. As with the F-4 and the F-14, the Eagle won't fly forever. So it is a good idea to call the power-that-be's attention to preservation...NOW! In solidarity, M'Dog Link to post Share on other sites
VFA-103guy Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 (edited) Great news guys!! I just spoke with Tom Brewer over at the Air Force Museum in Dayton, and they are working to get this F-15 flown to Dayton as we speak! They are already taking action to have the F-15 delivered from AMARC to preserve it. Guess they were one step ahead of us. WOOHOO!! :) Now, we dance!!
