There is a USMC C-130 and a Navy T-39G (that's one of those bizjet looking trainers) parked over at Jet Center at FRG. Don't know any details, but if you're in the area, check them out.

Actually, it was a KC-130 - can I spot a tanker, or what?

The T-39 was backed up against the fence, and without Fred's SUV to stand on, this is the best I could do:

They were from Saturday, around Noon. They were both parked over by Jet Center - I just got up close and stuck the lens up to the fence so I wouldn't get too much of the fence in the shot, and I could crop it out of the edges.

The KC-130 was gone later in the afternoon, don't know about the T-39.
