Thanks very much for the info. Now if I can just match side numbers to
BuNos... There does seem to be a couple of discrapancies. There seems
to be one extra A4 and a a missing RA5C. Thanks again.

Some suggestions -- contact any combination of the following and make a
request specific for the BuNos of those aircraft lost/damaged:

Naval Historical Center, the Naval Aviation History Branch -- CVW-17
1967 Command History Report;

Navy JAG -- any appendix or other add-on to the formal Court of Inquiry
which lists the losses (personnel and/or equipment);

Naval Safety Center -- ask for any report which includes the aircraft
lost/damaged (it's possible that JAG and NSC would actually have the
same report.)

Frormlly do a FOIA with your specific request via:

http://www.foia.navy.mil/

and let the Navy find the info for you. g It may take some time of
course.

a3skywarrior.com has a list of dispositions of all A-3's. If any were
lost on Forrestal, the date should show.

Thanks. I know the site. I was in VAP-62 when it de-commissioned. Good
tour of duty. No A-3s were lost in the fire but 3 RA-5cs were. Thhanks
again.
