This underside photo shows the F9F-8P's clean lines.

Due to a lack of landing gear, the Cougar sits rather
ingloriously on mattresses and wooden palettes.

The rear surfaces of the aircraft are being stripped of their old paint.

This Cougar is in good company, with an F-4,

an A-6, and the other Cougar parked nearby.

This photo is a view of the recon Cougar's unusual nose.
Although both camera windows were painted over, one has
been broken, allowing a view into the roomy camera area.
