As much as I like the I-16, the I-153 has always looked cooler to me.

Very cool looking....is the I-15 the same as the I-153?

Nope, a non-flyer. No J2M's flying today.

Nothing I hate worse than an airplane going on static display.

I think this Jack sat in an LA park for years and in the 70's, the owner of the museum bought it thank God.

The I-153 was an advanced development of the I-15. The I-16, is the monoplane similar to the I-15.

This is truly amazing After having spent four years 2004-2008 on that island I find it discoveries such as this exciting!

VMF/VMA-211 has definitely had a a tough history. First Wake Island, then Camp Bastion.

were you a part of 211?

No, Im AF. But Ive known a few pilots over the years from -513, -311 and other Yuma-based units, as well as having worked with (against) -401.
