It takes military ID or a sponsor to get on the base, but if you go west from the main gate there is a pinic area you can sit at and see the trainers fly and take off and touch and goes for as long as you feel like sitting there. Pretty cool stuff.

I always enjoy visiting bases, since I have been to several theaters around the free world. When visiting my grandchildren near Covington I enjoy taking them there to see the static display of older trainers. Thanks for your time.

Handful of aircraft on outdoor static display. Requires entry to Vance for viewing. T-38 is mounted in flying attitude near the main gate, visible to visitors without entry to the base. Displays also include a T-41 not listed above.

I flew F-105s in Vietnam and the newly completed paint scheme on the Thud is wonderful. World class thanks, Vance AFB.

I Was there as a Flight Commander/Operations Officer 1962 to 1965. Never had a student bail out, never had a fatality or an accident in all my time there. I started the Flight as Mojack, and our patch had indian lingo (Necha Okessa) which meant wings of silver.

Good, well-maintained base display. I visited May 30, 2000. The B-26 is down by the flightline.
