I am wondering if N909DM is still the fuselage that was still in Middlebury VT years ago.


Confirmed today that the airframe is still there.

Any pics of it?

This one you definatly strap it on. Under the cowling is two GE CJ6-10 engines. Just one of the GE's running equals both of the thrust rating of the turbomecca's with 1,000 lbs of thrust to spare. With both lit, I believe the take off roll could justify as being a poor mans F-104 if you could afford to feed this fouga.

Ahhhhh 8) so instead of rolling your eyes to back of your head, the G's on T/O pushes your eyes into the back of your head......I'm down with that like three flat tires.
