Originally posted by Omar Alex Saffeis there any chance that some very rich collector will have a Tomcat flying in airshows like we see with F-86, F-104, Mig-21 and so on ? I guess not but that would be great...

Mostly BS, didnt we sell them a bunch of parts in the 80's? I'm sure between them, russia, and china they could make enough parts to keep them in the air. And even then, a 1970's vintage F-14A with poorly trained pilots cant be that much of a threat against an F-22.

Originally posted by DAL767-400ERWho knows, Mr Mateschitz (the owne of Red Bull) would certainly be an interesting candidate. IIRC, his Hangar 7 at Salzburg is already home to an F-86, along with other planes. A Tomcat would make quite a nice addition to his collection, obviously depending on the price.

Good point for you, but even as static display, monitoring the development on the officialdom side should provide for some interesting reading as this would be a first of a kind.
