Article about F-106A 59-0069 at Griffiss AFB, NY in Aug 1994 when it was being taken down to be moved to Great Falls, MT and repainted in 186th FIS, Great Falls colors with tail number 57-2463 a 186th tail. The story above erroneously states that 59-0069 experienced a "hard" landing, when in fact in the Fall of 1986 it experienced a Trim Pad accident that broke the Main Landing Gears.
