Great rebuild.
FYI my AT-28D-5 [started life as an A Model] that we recovered from Laos many moons ago was a complete unbent aircraft. During our restoration to flying condition it was discovered that:
- Centre fuselage one serial number
- RH outer wing panel another number
- LH outer wing panel yet another
- Centre section wings different again
- Rear fuselage different to centre fuselage
- Engine mount/cowls from a B model [still had big traces of International Orange on them!]
Not sure about flaps and control surfaces.
It was given a number 50-273 and log books showed this...
Was it an original AT-28D-5?
Like so many service aircraft....and here in the UK referred to as a Triggers Broom.
And for the explanation of that...
