Workers adjust a sling holding an F/A-18 Hornet aircraft formerly flown by NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center, Edwards, California, during operations to mount the airframe for display in front of the municipal baseball stadium on Lancaster, California. |
| Project Description |
The F/A-18 was used as a safety chase and support aircraft prior to its recent retirement. The aircraft is now mounted nose skyward on a 28-foot-tall pedestal in front of the stadium. The stadium, known as "The Hangar," is the home field of the Lancaster Jethawks, a Class-A farm team of the Seattle Mariners. |
