My father flew a full 100 missions in Korea...He was in the 9th FBS under the 49th FBG at the K-2 Teagu Korea..The 9th started with the F-80C and then got the F-84E thunderjet...My father said when they added the extra seat conversion from the F-80 to the T-33 it made the plane fly not as good as the F-80....
There's the shell of a T-33 shooting star trainer in Waynesboro, GA. I went and visiited it today and looked up in the front wheel wheel with all period vietnam era rotting away electonics and pneumatic lines. The engine has been removed and its just a display shell. Not sure what's left in the cockpit, I should take a bucket or ladder next time to stand on. Plexiglass canopies still there but very spidered up from age and unusable.
