At last, I managed to go to Warrensburg today; I saw and photographed the F-84 there:
s/n 0-11639; the cockpit looks like it has instumentation; the airplane is fairly complete, two large underwing tanks; S.E. Asia Cammo; very weathered and in sore need of lots of TLC.
Surprisingly, and different from other F-84s that I have seen, this one has the engine still in place!
Next to the F-84, there is a T-39, ??-10680 "TG-039" with the sign AIR AMERICA on the fuselage. This airplane is in really bad shape; no engines; cockpit is mostly there, but some instruments have been either removed or stolen. The door was open when I saw it, and the interior contains lots of trash and airplane parts.
Inside a T-hangar in front of the F-84, there is a TH-55 Helicopter s/n 67-16755; no rotors; glazing is broken; but overall, complete.
These aircraft are the property of CMSU (Central Missouri State U??)
Nearby, an RC-3 Seabee )N-6490K)
Lee's Summit airport:
The EAA Chapter 91, has an UH-1D/H (As per sign); it rests on a trailer, skids are there, but removed; chopper looks complete.
S/n 66-00970 (as per sign).
Also, visited the Airline History Museum in KC, and saw the Martin 4-0-4 (with military history) as well as the L-1049G Connie.
Saludos,
Tulio
