From 1953 to 1963 the Wyoming Air National Guard used the Lockheed T-33 Shooting Star to train-up pilots for the F-80 Shooting Star and North American F-86 Sabre.
In October 2016, the Wyoming Air National Guard 153rd Airlift Wing’s Structural Maintenance Section spent two weeks restoring a T-33 ‘gate guard’.
Notice that the tail number was at first masked-off to read 36661.
By November 2016, the restored T-33 was ready for display in Building 16 Hanger.
Notice that the tail number now reads 63661.
On 25OCT2019, T-33 #63661 was moved to its new ‘gate guard’ job at the Wyoming Military Museum in Cheyenne.
