The Osceola T-Bird

Contributed by Fred Taylor

The T-133 static display in this photo has a little story with it. This aircraft was fully functional and complete. One day while myself and a buddy were cleaning up around the old bird and polishing her up, we noticed that the two missile pods were occupied. When the aircraft was set up the ordinance was not removed and she was armed with twenty 2.75" FFARs, which by the way were live. The missile pods were promptly removed.
