On September 22, 2009, the 154th Wing hosted as ceremony and luncheon to honor the last F-15 Eagle left the Hawaii Air National Guard flightline. It was aircraft 77-074, but we couldn’t find the name of the pilot who flew this last flight.

Among the many pilots and maintenance retirees were (L-R) Wayne Soma, Rex Koga, and Stan Lum. All served for many years in the maintenance complex working on F-86 Sabres, F-102 Delta Daggars, F-4 Phantoms and F-15 Eagles.
