No problem. I have some pics that I ave to get put on a disc this weekend, and then I can post a few pics. She is under restoration at KAGC. About 90% complete, and is up north getting a polish job for now. The owner and lead pilot just lost his medical so we are not sure what we are going to do at this point. She flew in Bolivia. Currently getting put back into a WWII scheme. No markings just plain for the most part.

It was purchased as a project aircraft in 2004, but I am not sure what state it was in as I was not involved with it at that point. I became friends witht he owner while working together at KPIT. It was going to be a flier, but with thte loss of his medical, I am not sure what options are left to take. I don't know if he will continue to own the aircraft. Also thanks to politics it has been evicted form it's hangar at KAGC. The local government claimed that they now own eveyone's hangar and want to rip a big chunk of them down.
