Hi all,
This project was up for sale and moved on to someone in late 2014, provenance discussed here: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=54208&start=0

Some photos can be seen here: http://www.airport-data.com/aircraft/NZ5503.html

So, does anyone know who has it and where it is? Is it still at Rice Lake Regional - Carl's Field Airport?

I'm doing a little census of surviving Corsairs with RNZAF links and this one - which seems to consist of mostly BuNo 50000/NZ5503, an unknown birdcage and parts from BuNo 49956/NZ5527 - is the only one that I'm struggling to pin down.

Thanks in advance!

I'm revisiting my RNZAF Corsair census and am still drawing a blank on this project. Can anyone help?
