I am trying to tie up a few loos ends.

#1 Was the Randy Hunt Texan at the show? Of so which one was it and what was the C/R?

#2: What was the C/R of the Bill Pratt Trojan? I forgot to note it.

Bill Pratt's T-28A is N28100, 49-1703. I took the Randy Hunt T-6 off the list since I don't know which aircraft he could have been flying unless it was Bob Pingston's T-6G N128WK.

Anyone have an ID # on what might be a Grumman A-6 (Intruder) in the static/storage area of the museum? She appears to be somewhat complete albeit in many parts!!!

The EA-6A Intruder is very much a "bitsa" aircraft, a bit from this plane, a bit from another, etc. The YAF received it from the Intrepid Museum in New York City. It was reportedly used to make the movie "Flight of the Intruder".

The nose section is from BuNo 156981. Center Wing from BuNo 152621. Act section and vertical fin from BuNo 152933. Landing gear from BuNo 156989. Missing are the windshield and frame, landing gear and wheels and the horizontal stabilizer. Can anyone help us find these parts?
