The A-7 was a work horse for the Navy. The USAF purchased a large number but turned them over to the Guard and Reserve units. The 127th FIG at Selfridge had A-7D for about a decade. I worked on them for a few years until I transferred to the 191St "Six Pack" The units A-7D all came from Tuson AZ. The unit had a group of Michigan guardsmen handle the transfers. The aircraft was easy to maintain. It was a sad day for the 127Th when the unit converted to the F-16A's. Why you ask, because these F-16 were the oldest in the USAF inventory. A few of them had been pre-production and first production build's. The manuals and wiring diagrams didn't agree to the what was in the aircraft.
Enough talk. now for the decals.
