Interview about the restoration
BuNo 156925 served in the US Navy Instrument Training Program, and was largely used as a land-based instrument trainer. The aircraft has 115 arrested landings making it one of the lowest cycle TA-4J's in existence. Even though it was retired, it had an incredible 52% life remaining based on US Naval utilization standards.
