Does anyone have any current photos of TBM N3967A S/N 53835? I thought I had some photos of this plane from the mid 1980s but it was a different one. This one is registered to Skarda Flying Service in Hazen, AR. You can post them here, PM me, or email me at astixjr@earthlink.net Thanks,

Estate sale maybe? Looks like a T-6 and a Cessna 310 for sale as well.

Thanks, that does appear to be the TBM but it's not the one I was thinking of. I appreciate the links, they were very helpful. I'm wondering how complete the turret is?

I've been going through the Forest Protection Ltd annual reports for our history project, and I found reference to N3967A as having sprayed in New Brunswick in 1982, one of 5 TBMs attributed to Stewart Aviation as having been contracted to FPL that year (and 4 in 1981).

The Warbird's page does not list this company in its page for this aircraft. Sorry, no photos. Any ideas how we can reconcile this?
