How to find reg for military jets

[Kevin]

Hello! I went to KMCC yesterday in Sacramento. I took many shots of those interesting military aircrafts, however, I have trouble finding the registrations of those jets. eg. 42822 is painted on the tail but when I tried to upload picture, I can't find any information on this aircraft...Anyone can help? Is there an easy way to find regs? Any good website you recommand me to go on?

EDITED: Sorry not sure if this is the place to post this.

I searched around this forum and found http://home.att.net/~jbaugher/usafserials.html
How do I know what year the serial number is in??

Thank you

Would help if you tell us what aircraft you shot.

However I bet the aircraft you mean is 54-2822 a VC-131D cn 232 preserved as "California One" at Sacramento.

One of the best sources is always www.scramble.nl .

In the U.S. Navy's case (as well as the Coast Guard and some NASA aircraft), aircraft registration is determined by the six-digit BUNO number, i.e. 163429, 165666, etc.
