This has been discussed here and in an email group I belong to. The experts point out it shares Mk 2 and Harvard 4 charactersitics, so it may be a composite airframe. i.e. nothing is known about this airframe.

It is one of my goals this summer to visit the RCAFA in Smith Falls and see if I can get permission to take a look inside the cockpit.
