Thanks for your post and the link.
I knew the plane was down in South St Paul for years, but I've never seen it in, only in pictures. I would have loved to see it fly and get some pictures for myself.
I'm on the north side of St Paul, so close and yet so far.

I was there in the early seventies when Jack Lysdale did the first engine run. I also saw it at the, now gone, Northport Airport in 1976(?) where Jack flew it to do a commercial for Norwest Airlines. Those are the only times I ever saw it outside of the hangar.
