Maybe moreso in the "Warbug" realm of possible performance ultimates?

Zane... this was Bob Parcell's Culver. Bob traded a couple airplanes to the NMUSAF over the years. I believe he did trade the Culver to them.

Saw Bob on SAT at lunch. He has had his hands on quite a few Warbirds over the years, either owning them or painting them! I worked for him years ago.
