Our F16 Jet that is on display was brought over on a night mission with its wings removed. Members of the Vermont Air National Guard and much coordination with our own Walt Houghton, a former member of the VTANG and now Board Member, made this all happen and for that we are grateful and proud to display this majestic aircraft at the Museum here at Camp Johnson.
The model of the F-16 as shown here was sitting outside of the Museum with a broken tail rudder and other minor scotches and in need of a new paint job. Two of our skilled volunteers, Walt Houghton and Roland Charbonneau repaired the Jet and another volunteer, Andy Laramee, had a steel support made. The picture here shows Roland Charbonneau and Tom O' Donovan accomplishing the finishing touches and now the F-16 can be seen ready for take off in front of the entrance to the Museum.
