"This aircraft was flown to the Elmira-Corning Regional Airport by its pilot, Carrier Wing Commander (CAG) and former Wings of Eagles Board Member, Captain Snodgrass. It was then stripped of its engines (to be overhauled and reused) and sensitive electronics. All F-14s have now been decommissioned."
