Does your Dad still has that BT-13 of his?

Unfortunately he doesn't. He bought it about January '90 in Colorado Springs from Whitey Wannamaker(spelling?). Registration was N60794. He sold in mid-'93 I guess it was. It's tough for me to remeber these things as I was just a little elementary-schooler. Not sure where it is today, but FAA listing says Washington State. I'd be curious to see if anyone has recent pics.

Hi Danta,

Quick question do you know th story about the Stinson.

If so i would like to know more about it pm please.

Cheers RR

I'm sorry Col. I do not know much about that aircraft. Those pictures were sent to my father back in the early-80's when he was still very active with warbirds. He cannot remember who sent them, but he is going to try to dig up the letter. All I know is those pics are in Alaska circa-1982/3

What is the white aircraft 2 above Fifi? I don't recognise the type.

If I'm looking at the right picture, it is a Grumman Guardian. Used to be owned by the EAA for a short time, but I think it is now owned by Jimmy Leeward down in Florida.

Steve :wink:

Does anyone know what is going on with this aircraft? I didn't know any where in "private" hands. I know the CAF, Pima and the USN Museum has one. Any others hiding under rocks (if hiding from the Navy I don't want too know :wink:

)

I talked to Jimmy about his Guardian last year. He said he hasn't flown it recently because it needed the oil cooler overhauled, otherwise it's flyable.

That's all I know...I swear. :lol:
