There is a very good chance that you are correct... After all the F-4 flew for nearly the entire way... However, there is equally a chance that you are incorrect, since we are talking the last sortie... However, just so you know, even if a chopper was listed, it would be a wrong answer...

Looks like you went with the numbers... More votes for the A-6 then any other aircraft... But quantity doesnt mean quality! You could be wrong.... Or you could be wrong... I guess that gives a hint, huh?

No new votes for posts in quite awhile now... So... The answer is... The F-14!!!!!!! People forget that the F-14 flew in Vietnam in 1975 covering the Saigon evacuate with a combat air patrol over the city... The F-14 only had one deployment to Vietnam, aboard USS Enterprise (CVAN-65) with CVW-14, which was made from 17 September 1974 to 20 May 1975. Even though VF-1 and VF-2 Tomcats flew combat air patrols over South Vietnam as part of Operation Frequent Wind, F-14s didn't score any MiG kills. The following squadrons belonged to Carrier Air Wing 14: VF-1 F-14A VF-2 F-14A So no one got this one right, as the only vote for the Tomcat was mine...
