I was wondering if someone here can help me. I am trying to find some of the aircraft collectors that are in sorts like Walter Soplata and Leon Cleaver. There was someone with a field full of T-28's. Im looking for people and places like this. Thanks!

Nathan - I know of a Milton Pettapiece of Bethel Park, Penna has been collecting for several years. I have a note that there was several T-28's stored at Fort Lauderdale Exec, Fla - but info quite old, and I seem to recall a collector whom lived in southeat with aircraft setting in woods - read in Air Classics some years back....

Is it an RF?
Which would make it a RF-84K (25 built as opposed to the YF-84F used for testing the FICON concept).
If it still has empennage, easy way to tell, if the horz. stabilizers have a good bit of anhedral. If so, it's something rather special.
If it's not an RF, then it's the YF-84F.
