Funny, I imagine your first check mark would be that it's an A model.

No thats CAPflyers motto i believe!

I am bad enough having a J model! Anything model of any type of aircraft is terrible to have when it is first entered into service!

I've don't have any decent pictures of this bird, as she was parked pretty tight for photos and a quick shade magnet.

for an A model, she looks like she has H model wings and engine with 4 bladed props. She's a hybrid, just not of the gas saving type, thats for sure!
