This is a view from Bob Flournoy's Cessna 172 N8249X, on final to runway 34 at RIC on July 1, 2008. This is just about the same view Soup Campbell had on September 16, 2007 when he made that Last Low Pass and Salute for the crowd at the Virginia Air National Guard, and then climbed F-16C 86-219 out heading for Texas. This is a familiar view of all the VA-ANG pilots who flew in and out of Richmond for 60 years, and I think of that each time I fly out of RIC. The former VA-ANG ramp on the right is empty except for a lone FBI aircraft.
The Sandston facility is now the home of the Virginia Air National Guard Joint Force Headquarters - Air, and the 200th Weather Flight.

| All eyes are on the Virginia Air National Guard's last F-16C, 86-219, as Soup Campbell takes her downwind for RIC's runway 34 for that last Fly By Salute to the Virginia Air National Guard on 9-16-07. |
