Springfield, Wright Pat, and Toledo have F-16's

Toledo still have a active National Guard? I grew up around there, and used
to watch F-100's practice breaks over our house.

I happened to be at the airport in 74 or 75, when one crashed off the end
of the runway. I never did find out why.

Oops, kinda ages me, doesn't it?

They still fly several F-16s out of Toledo and we get visits by KC-135s and
F-15s every once in a while (the former more than the latter).

The F-16s are definitely noticeable when they are up training (my house is
about 4 miles off of the threshold of TOL runway 25). Of course the Coast Guard
& Hospital helicopters along with the nightly cargo DC-8s are more commonly
seen & heard :-)
