At Mail Call, Jim Sanders was heard saying to Derek Wakefield
JS> Production ended March 1961. The F-101B came to the museum from the
JS> ANG in Feb. 1981 so they must have been phased out a bit before this.
JS> The RF-101C was delivered to the Museum on Oct.27, 1978 from Miss ANG,
JS> Key Field, Miss.
JS> McDonnel made 785 of them.  My multi-engine instructor (civilain)

Jim...
     Thanks for the info. 1980-82 seems to be the most likely bet. The
first point in which I've seen it missing is the March 82 issue of
Aviation Week and Space Technology. In their Aerospace Forecast and
Inventory log of US Miliary Aircraft, the first plane mentioned was
the 105.
     Still, I'd be very interested in finding out what was the last
unit to fly the 101B.
TTYL!
