VOUGHT TA-7 Corsair 2 (15-9647)

I was going to edit out the bird but I decided to leave it in. I have easily passed this jet several thousand times in the 25 years I've lived here and it is always crisp and clean; no bird deposits, no faded paint, so I figured the bird won't "ruin" the jet so it could stay. lol
This jet is a landmark in this town; everybody uses it to give directions (ie: "just stay on this highway until you see the Navy A-7 on the left and then take a right and ....") etc. etc. Maybe that is one reason it is always so well maintained. Seriously, I've seen more aircraft on display outside under the sun than I can count and almost all of them are either faded, blistered, dust covered, rain spattered, bird splattered, or a combination of several of these. But not this one. I'd sit on the wing and eat a picnic lunch on this one. Congrats and Thanks to whoever is doing the maintenance on this.

that would have been "-1" removing the boid, Gman" Great story and yes, this is very clean. 5x
