skyray/cutlass in a CT barn

Thu Dec 06, 2007 9:04 pm

went to a tag sail up in the Litchfield hills area a few years ago and saw a jet on a trailer in the barn.Now i thought it said skyray or sky something under the canopy.
the person there was not very forth coming about the aircraft but if i remember corretly he said it was not his.
i believe it was along Rt 202..............

In Eastern CT, near Putnam, there are 2 T-33's disassembled in a farmers field.
I haven't heard anything about the Litchfield Jet.

Where might these T-33's be Jerry? :wink:

I might have to make myself a little adventure! As for the Skyray, that would be an amazing find.

You might be right about Reilly's F9F B-W. I just haven't heard that much about it.

Steve;
Great to hear from you!
I hope all is well with you?!
I'm involved with a Veterans Salute in Hartford next September. Interested in helping out?
I promise you won't be left and forgotten at some remote gate! :oops:

Chris;
It's somewhere around Putnam. I'm tracking down my buddies photos as we speak.
