It is said that all good things come to an end, and so it was with the Tomcat’s service.

The end came in 2006, when the final US Navy F-14 squadron, VF-31 Tomcatters, shut down their F-14Ds for the last time. But there’s a lot more to the story than the Tomcat Sunset ceremony at NAS Oceana and a final flight, such as the final deployment and behind-the-scenes activities.

Our guest is uniquely qualified for this topic as he was the last commanding officer of VF-31: James “Puck” Howe. His accounts of the squadron’s performance and the aircraft’s final months will make you proud to be a Tomcat fan!
