SINGAPORE TA-4 Super Skyhawk (N524CF) - One from my archives highlighting marine and naval aviation aviation history at its finest. I snapped this shot of a 1945 Grumman TBM-3E Avenger (N81865/85632) and a 1967 McDonnell Douglas TA-4J Skyhawk (N524CF/T83) during their demonstration at Thunder Over Michigan, Willow Run Airport, on 21 Aug 2016.

Excellent! Both aircraft had empty weights of approx 10,000#'s. The Avenger took off at 18,000#'s when carrying a 2,000# bomb or torpedo. The smaller A-4 took off at a gross weight of over 24,000#'s - ready to fight. Ain't power wonderful?
