Made the trek over to Ellington to see what was on the ramp and it did not disappoint. The first thing I spotted was a F-5N from VFC-111 Sundowners, NAS Key West painted up in what appears to be a CoNA paint scheme. Not only did I see an adversary a/c, but one painted up in special markings. Sweet! Also spotted a trio of T-38Cs from the 469FTS, Fighting Bulls, 80FTW, Sheppard AFB, Texas and a T-44C Pegasus from VT-31 Wise Owls, NAS Corpus Christi, Texas. Been quite a while since I’ve seen one of their a/c on the ramp.
