Notes:

Wings of Freedom Aviation Museum (Delaware Valley Historical Aircraft Association) at NAS Willow Grove, PA. - (#33-0824 was one of fifty P-80C's obtained from the USAF in 1948 for use as advanced jet trainers. Initially the Navy designated them "TO-1"'s, and then changed the designation to "TV-1". The T-33's that came later were designated the TV-2. None of the TV-1's were fitted with arresting gear. Despite their training role, 16 of the TV-1s were used to outfit a Marine fighter squadron (VMF-311) in late 1948.)
