Is there any possibility that someone could tell me of the current status/location of Hawker Sea Hawk WM994, which was allocated US identity N994WM but subsequently cancelled?
Any information at all would be greatly appreciated. The airplane was acquired by a member of the Midland Aircraft Preservation Society/Midland Air Museum, registered in England as G-SEAH and then sold in the US.
A friend in England is trying to bring the story up-to-date in the MAPS/MAM history which he is compiling.
Thanks in advance and tailwinds, Steve.
FWIW
A 5-minute Google search pulled up the name Jim Kramer of Butler, Pennsylvania, as the most-recent owner.
Butler isn't a big town, and one Jim Kramer there is the proprietor of Kramer Automotive Specialties.
If you throw that business's address (130 Kramer Lane) into Google Maps, it reveals the remains of a swept-wing aircraft in a wooded area outdoors, as well as several warehouses and containers inside which one might store the remains of a Hawker Sea Hawk.
No guarantees WM994 is there, but perhaps it's worth a phone call for your friend.
Happy hunting
