This A-4 Skyhawk was damaged while being craned of the pedestal.  Additional damage was caused when crane parts fell on the tail section. The damage was repaired, The aircraft repainted and as of 12/19/2011,  the aircraft as been reattached to the pedestal. The aircraft is on board the former NAS Alameda in California.

This photo was E-mailed and I was one of many recipients.
