F-106 Delta Dart

In this gallery you will find photos of one of my favorite jets of all time. Unfortunately not many are left and I have been very fortunate to see some of the last ones flying as target drones. As the pilots put it "Born the fly, reborn to die".

Great memories ! I also worked CN&L at the 48th FIS . I was there from 1958 to May 1962. Thanks John for sending me this link. I left the Hampton area for 6 years, and then moved back to work for Northrop-Grumman. I am a member of the Langley AFB Officers Club. Thanks Marc. Garland Arnold

Marc, I loved your images of that great old bird. I was in the CN&L shop at the 48th FIS at Langley and worked on the F-106 from 1962 to 1965. There are still two of them left here in Tucson. One is at Davis-Monthon AFB and the other is across the street at the Pima County Air Musem. Using Google Earth, go to 32 8.413N 110 52.105W

I love the century Series Jets , I live South. of MCclellelen AFB and before they retired I had the joy of seeing them fly out after some depot work . I am glad their Museum is adding one their collection . Also down the road is Castle AFB , that has a nice one on display . So now I am building a 1/48 model to display at my office . Thanks for the nice photo's !!
