I really thought they were going to fly her to Oshkosh, take the awards, get a photo flight with the FW-190, and then either retire her to the museum or fly her. Surprised to say the least. With the family model FM-2 also for sale, I wonder what else will be considered surplus to there needs.

Chicks Dig Warbirds.......right?

She's been quietly for sale for quite a while. Now that it's ready to go it's official. They are looking for a combat vet P-51 for static display, beyond that I don't know any more. Hopefully she will go to a good home and will be flown.

Surely, good news?

Considering the rarity of B & Cs, it's better to have it flying than static?

I figure if you wanted my opinion on items unrelated to this forum, you'd ask for it.

Thank you Mr. Jim for all the great videos you shared with us when you toured her across the USA.

Must have been fun times.

Absolutely, those were the best days of the tour...won't lie, I sure miss it...all the people that we met throughout the country will always mean the most.

Jim
