There's at least one, perhaps two Yales that did not come from the Simmons auction. The one I am sure of is 3428 (N214BT) which came from western Canada, and IIRC there was one that came out of a scrapyard around Ottawa (?)

So what happened to that prototype Yale in Del Rio? Great thread decided to recycle it.
As Jim said earlier, it's still regestered to Ray Kirkpatrick as N13397. Would love to see pics of it!
If anyone's interested, I'm currently working on a Yale survivor registry, and have 32 confirmed survivors, not including 3415 and 3454 which have since been lost.
Yales that I am uncertain as to their wherabouts are 3347, 3369, 3381, 3403, 3409, 3448 & 3452. If anyone has info regarding these Yales, or any other unknown Yales, it would help immensely!
Last I heard 3381 was in storage with the CAF, and 3369 was in France (?). Hopefully someone can confirm.
I also know of a chap up near Hensall, Ontario, who has two Yales, and I just got his phone number recently. Hopefully I'll know their identities in the near future.
