Hi all
The F-14 Tomcat was officially retired after 36 years of service at the Final Flight Ceremony held at Naval Air Station (NAS) Oceana Sept. 22.More than 1,300 former and present F-14 aviators, maintainers, and support personnel attended the ceremony.A small number of F-14s will be departing NAS Oceana through Sept. 30 to their final destinations at museums or be placed in war reserve at Davis Monthan Air Force Base, Ariz.The Navy’s new F/A-18E/F “Super Hornet” will replace the F-14.
