I see scoops infront of the turbochargers, YP-38. Very Nice!

Does it have functioning turbochargers installed now? When Lefty owned it it didn't, correct?

Regards,
Mike

Simply remarkable. Wonderful craftsmanship. Many, many congratulations to everyone at Ezell Aviation. I doubt anyone could have done a better job.

Cheers,
Richard
