Retro VT-24, 25, 26

I have been dabbling with some scenery design techniques, and on one of them I have begun to recreate NAS Chase Field in Beeville, Tx. And I was wondering how to go about locating BuNo's and side numbers for the circa 1990 TA-4's and T-2's of VT-24, VT-25, and VT-26. I am pondering creating some retro flight plans for these units and this base. The base was BRACed in 1993 with the units being decommisoned in the early months of 1992.

If I end up releasing this, it will probibly carry 2 versions, one version being the fully active base circa 1990, and a current version with one runway open and limited parking. Any information anyone has would be much apprecated.

Matt,
I can start looking on a naval aviation forum I am on, but do you actually have AI T-2's and TA-4's?

Well, I for one am hoping the answer is yes.....especially the T-2's

not really, I was planning on using Nick Black's A-4 from the Top Gun package, while I realize that is not a true TA-4 it will make a decent filler, and there is a T-2 for FS2k2 that might do well in small numbers.

Ok, I have that T-2, and the flyable K.Ito and RAZBAM models, both unsuitable for AI. Have to go back look at a very old NAS Pensacola project I was working on...way prior to MAIW.

This is mainly just a test base to try new techniques and practice my skills.
