Yes. Pat is working on our Marauder. I think the other one is the pile of parts that used to be at the Hill AFB museum and maybe a couple of other sources.

And, no, I've no idea when it will be finished. It's done when it's done.

My question for James is always the same one: "When will the P-47 be back from Australia?"

See my post above for timelines on the A-20 and P-47. :D
Both are being worked on but there is no completion date for either one.
