I spoke with the guy, it is 50 miles above Chicago. They indicated that the wings are cut and the fuselage was cut somewhere. It is sure sad to see it get scrapped but I fear that may be where it ends up.

Well on the G503.com site he was asking for $3000 but he is open to offers. If it was closer I would probably make a serious offer but shipping would be more than I am willing to pay. Apparently owned by some sort of a museum and I know nothing about them or him just the info I got from him.

Is that If you want a complete airframe hulk, contact Lancaster Aviation in Canada and see what they have left. For $3000 plus shipping, you'd darn near be able to get a complete airframe hulk from Lancaster. $3000? How 'bout $300?

It's close enough, I'm going to try and get it. I've always liked them, and it seems like a good plane to learn on...

I will have 2 Spitfire main tires for sale next week. They are Dunlops and for the larger 12" wheels, not the earlier Spits. They are well used, and are recapped Dunlop cores and still have decent tread. I have flown with them for several years, they will be replaced due to weather checking on the sidewalls. One is better than the other, could easily be used as a spare, or both could be used for a static display. New a set is $1000 plus shipping, I would sell these for $75 each, one or both. Send me a PM if interested.

Is that like Pâté?

I don’t think I’ve ever seen Hors D'oeuvres at a hangar party, but then I was saving my appetite for the corn-on-the-cob and steak.

I know this thread is about a year old but I am curious if the T-33 fuselage went to a good home or did it get scrapped??
