Correcting USAMOOS: there is NO DC-3 here. The Rockwell/DASA Ranger 2000 is a trainer build for use in the USAF/USN (JPATS).
The Ranger 2000 did not succeed in the competition, which was won by the T-6A Texan II. Third prototype is displayed here. Second prototype crashed.
The first [rototype N104NA is now based/preserved (?) at Baden-Baden in Germany.

Questions for today:

- Full serial of Vance AFB T-38C 378 / VN
- ID of T-6A 33 FTS commander. yellow fintip.
- T-6A 04-3720 belongs to 8FTS Vance AFB ?
T-38C (70-1571) VN 71FTW USAF AETC c/a
F-16C (89-2145) OK 125FS USAF ANG c/a

I have never noted a 378/VN. But this is most likely the 66-4378/VN.

The ID of the "33 FTS" Comm is 04-3733 (Yellow finstripe with the text Dragons).

I have only noted the 04-3720 with the 84 FTS wearing the XL tailcode.

The T-38C 70-1571/VN was last noted by myself on 05/24/2008 therefore this info might be dated. It was then noted as Comm with the "71 OG" designation on the tail.

I have noted the 89-2145/OK but without Comm titles back in 2002. So also dated.

Nice catch on the Yemeni AF Huey's.

Cheers,

Seb.
