Hi All I have a buddy who recovered a ( shot down in combat) D model in 1981. He has the data plate and paperwork. What is something like this worth? Thanks Red |

The data plate itself means nothing as far as an airplane is concerned. You can make a replacement data plate if you have FAA paperwork though.
As far as a piece of memorabilia it should be worth a few hundred dollars on eBay. |

Mark It was recoverd in 1981 in Europe by my friend who was career Air Force. He obtained the salvage rights from them, then went to the FAA. I hope that clears up your confusion. |
