A retired F-15C has begun its cross-country land journey from JB Langley-Eustis, Va., to the Chico Air Museum in northern California. The partially disassembled aircraft left Langley on two trucks Monday, reported the Chico Enterprise-Record. The trucks are expected to reach the aircraft’s new home by early August, according to the paper. The F-15 will go on display there. The museum purchased the fighter for $5,000 and agreed to move it at its own expense. Langley-Eustis’ last operational F-15s departed this past September as part of the Air Force’s drawdown of roughly 250 legacy fighters. F-22s now comprise the base’s fighter force.
In his first professional move since retiring from the Space Force at the end of August, former Chief of Space Operations Gen. B. Chance Saltzman will lead the board of advisors for Voyager Technologies, the firm announced Nov. 2.
