Caption:
Headed off the flight line and onto the road, an F-14A Tomcat is
transported the 19.5 miles from San Angelo Regional Airport to
Goodfellow Air Force Base Texas at a rate of 5 MPH after being
decommissioned by the Navy. This F-14A was the first F-14A to be
decommissioned by the Navy and was bought by Goodfellow AFB for $20,000
to be used for training by the 312th Training Squadron's Fire Training
Academy. The plane's engines, weapons, and related systems had to
be removed before transport to Goodfellow AFB and a few safety
alterations will have to be made for the plane to be used for training.
