This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

Here is a link to a pretty good description of the 5 different models and some operational history to boot. I know they did training out of Kissimmee Airfield here in Florida.

Joe Baugher's site suggests the following numbers:

P-70 (59)
P-70A-1 (39)
P-70A-2 (65)
P-70B-1 (1)
P-70B-2 (105)

Doh!

As Holedigger has already demonstrated: When in doubt, check Baugher. :wink:

Nice glimpse in the background of a Fairchild UC-61 and a Cessna UC-78 in a combat area.
