Wagonman,
I have some aerial photos somewhere that I took while getting a ride in a blimp from 5 years or so ago. When were you there last? My father was a A-7 AE back in the day, seems like I grew up at Cecil. I was stationed there as a S-3 VIking AE with VS-30 from 92-96, the base was shut down a few years later while I was on shotre duty at Jax. If there is anything in particular you want photos of let me know, alot has changed, most of the old navy buildings have been torn down, even the water towers were removed a few years ago. Alot of promise out there, but not alot of action. Had a few aviation companies talk a big game and back out at the last minute. Anyway, I am only a few minutes down the road, will be more than happy to get some pics for you.
