Summary edit

Description

Now that was a surprise! A Skywarrior landing at NAS North Island on 4 June 1999. Operated by Raytheon from Van Nuys airport near Los Angeles. Former 144825 of the US Navy. The photo was taken in the morning with the sun on the wrong side. On that day VQ-5 (ES-3A) was disestablished and the Whale was the special guest star for the ceremony.

N578HA was once based at PMTC Point Mugu with a very fat nose and called 'Snoopy'. It made its last flight on 29 April 2011 to NAS Whidbey Island and was restored to full Navy colours and put on display.
