I just got an e-mail from Dick Phillips who visited Pat Harker's facility on Monday. Both fuselages, Outer Wing Sections, Vertical Tail, and engines are done.
The only major part left to do on the Twin Mustang is the wing center section which is in a jig being worked on. I visited their not quite 2 years ago the aircraft is coming along quite nicely. Perhaps in a couple of years the skys will be graced with a Twin Mustang.

That's great news!

I heard a few years back that one of the biggest hurdles to the project was finding an "opposite handed" prop. Did they ever come up with one?

The F-82 they're talking about on this thread isn't the one with the legal case...that's our P-82. And it's still pending. Stay tuned.

Thanks for setting me straight Gary. I didn't realize that there were any other F-82 projects in the works.
