I have just been logging the above. I notice that in your log for Aug 2015 you have one as 149506. If you look again at your photo you will see that it is actually 149502; in fact you can just about make out its old MASDC park code 3A412

Corrected thanks.
A-4C Skyhawk 149506 is actually 149502 and it's A-4L
