F-106B 57-2523 is on display in 119th FIS colors at the Atlantic City IAP, Atlantic City, NJ. This one of the airlift photos taken by Dave Kuntz shows the harness used to 'fly' her back home to Atlantic City from Andrews AFB on 4 Dec 1992. This photo is a close-up of the hauling rig in the sixes backbone. It appears there is metal rather than 2x4's on the leading wing edges to break up the lift during transport. [Dave Kuntz collection]
