We are restoring our Grumman F9F Panther! 😁 The F9F was notably flown by future astronauts Neil Armstrong and John Glenn and by Boston Red Sox all-star Ted Williams. They were withdrawn from front-line service in 1956, and from Reserve service in 1958. The Panther was the first jet aircraft used by the Navy’s Blue Angels from 1950 to 1954. #thingstodoinboise #aviationlife #aviationworld #boisebusiness #avaitionlovers #aviation_lovers #pilots #visitidaho #flying #visitboise #aviationenthusiast |
