Rod Lewis must have one of the replica NA-50s in his stable.

Further information about the PA-64/NA-50 at:
http://www.airventuremuseum.org/collect ... #TopOfPage

This is a bit different than the myth floating around about these a/c and is based on some careful research.

Now, hijack over... :wink:

That "NA-50" is based in western NC and powered by a geared 1340. The owner is in the final stages of completing a "Super Six".

According to the owner or pilot that was at the airplane at Sun N Fun, it is a T-6 conversion to look like a Na-50. Right now I am at Baton Rouge waiting for better ceilings down the road. There is a FW190 in a hangar being rebuilt; apparently the fuselage may be authentic, engine and panel are not. Don't know about wings. Also a 51 on the ramp and a older looking T-28, as well as a active F-18, guess it is flown by a guy who lives here.
