Today 81-0964 is stationed with the 23 Fighter Group Pope AFB NC where it’s serving as one of the three East Coast Demo aircraft. This aircraft has moved to Moody AFB GA. along with the rest of the 23th in 2007.

As you can see in the photos below, which were taken my me in 2003 when 964 visited the depot here at Hill AFB UT., she is dressed in her finest! The 30mm Avenger Cannon, ladder, and “hub caps” are highly chromed and she carries a green star and the “lets roll” nose art on the left side of the aircraft. She also has the 23rd Group colors on the tail and the shark teeth linking her to the proud history of the 23rd Flying Tigers of WWII fame! The paint job was flawless and 964 was one of the best looking A-10s I’ve ever seen!
