Just checked Courtesy.

I think this one needs to go to the Tennessee Museum of Aviation and keep Lt. America company! I mean they already have a pair of matching Thunderbolts, its about time they had a pair of matching Skyraiders!

Any idea who had it and the story behind the quick sale - or was it simply pulled from the market last time?

I believe it's been with it's current owner 7-8 years now. The last time I recall seeing in the hands of Dr. Schloss was back in 2003. I would love to see it come back to the east coast or midwest. "Naked Fanny" used to be a regular at many of the shows I went to back then, and Schloss always did a great job displaying it. Even flew an aerobatic routine in it once at Warbirds Over Kalamazoo... weird seeing the big ol' pig of a Skyraider doing a barrel roll! Anyone know what he's up to these days?

Can anyone out West report - has she been seen at any airshows yet? Any plans for this old girl for the WIXer crowd?
