Vought F7U Cutlass

The Vought F7U Cutlass! This one sits abandoned in the hills of the Appalachian Mountains. This U.S. Navy multirole fighter was produced from 1948 – 1955 and over 300 were built during that period. The Navy Flight Demonstration Squadron, the Blue Angels, flew two F7U-1 Cutlasses as a side demonstration during their 1953 show season in an effort to promote the new aircraft. Now, at least one of the planes sits abandoned.
