Meridian Mississippi's RF-4C Restoration Completion

Jeff Summerlin sent us this update on the Meridian RF-4C Phantom.  Thank you, Jeff!  She looks great!


Here are some photos of the completed RF-4C Phantom II, 67-0438 located adjacent to Meridian's historical Key Field and home to the 186th Air Refueling Wing.

Ponsford LTD started the restoration on July 13th and completed it about 10 days later. 
 
The East Mississippi Veterans Foundation would like to thank the F-4 Phantom Society for their donation toward our project.
 
A sidewalk and signage will be added around the jet in the coming weeks. A Static Display Dedication and Ribbon Cutting Ceremony will take place on September 27, 2022 at 1:00PM at the aircraft. This will be the 186th's 83rd Anniversary, founded on September 27, 1939 as the 153rd Observation Squadron.  
 
Please credit the following individuals for the photographs - Terry Arnsdorff for the daytime photo, Ponsford LTD for aerial photo and Scott Stephens for the nighttime photo.
