Vought F7U
This Vought F7U Cutlass was abandoned in the Appalachian Mountains and was a U.S. Navy multirole fighter jet. The model was manufactured between 1948 to 1955, with over 300 units being produced. In the production line, which represented the Navy Flight Demonstration Squadron, there were the likes of the F7U-1 Cutlasses, which were operated by the Blue Angels. They needed to promote the aircraft, so during an aircraft show in 1953, the team flew the jet around so others could become aware of it. Today, here we have one abandoned in this lonely area.

Tied Down In Position
At the Peter O. Knight Airfield in Tampa, Florida, this abandoned aircraft is pictured tied down so it won’t get out of position. Apparently, it seems someone would use the machine but then decided it was not so much of a fun idea anymore. From the way, it seems, either a storm took away the tail of it, or a scavenger had come and made use of it. The aircraft could easily be bought and restructured into a work of art but, if you ask us, it would possibly be cheaper to get a new aircraft and let this one lie where it is.
