all P51's should be flying and made of aluminum.....not fiberglass!

I wonder what kind of condition the bomb doors are in on the Harpoon.
If there isn't a pole through them I thing Taigh could find a new home for them on his newly acquired treasure.
Just a thought...

Doesn't look like it has bomb bay doors.

Hey PJ....take a close look at this Harpoon....Does it look like the fuselage has been stretched out? I can't find some of my old pictures I took last time I was down there, but I believe that there are some kind of doors or a patchwork covering the bomb-bay. I remember that it had mis-matched props on her, no cowl flaps, that's what makes the engines look wierd. I can't remember if there was a cargo door on the starboard side like the other Harpoon at the put-put golf course in the Carolinas...Still seeking the identity of this Harpoon (oops! I forgot...Hudson!) I believe that she might be one of the tropical fish haulers that flew out of Florida...there is one that has vanished, or should I say, faded away....this could be it....

Just saw the posts about the Branson plane, and I think I remember Carl Scholl at Aero Traders saying that they put it at Putt Putt, thought arizona was mentioned as the source, but that might have been some other planes he was talking about.
Gary, were you the person I talked to or met at Nut Tree when the tri-gear was being run for a sale? If so, What happenned? Is the thing still there, and is it in any condition to fly again?

Negative on the tri-gear appearance.....would like to see her running though! Will be a Lodestar out in S.E. USA flying soon!
