Looking neat and sharp at age 40+, this lovely and very early Lockheed T-33A 51-8931/9-831 of 9AJÜ base flight at Akhisar. The white/dayglow was applied to several T-33's in the final stage of their operational life.

Not many T-Birds have survived their retirement in the 1990's. Many, like this 51-8931, have been last noted at Eskisehir, which is not a good sign. Probably scrapped around 1995.
