I've heard all they had to fix was a new landing gear handle actuator mechanism.






Sorry, that was too good to pass up. :D

That's GREAT to hear! I hope maybe I can see it in the air at a show in 2010. Also, this has got to be a Key vintage naval jet to appear at shows in 2011 to help mark the 100th Anniversary of U.S. Naval Aviation.
