My inofrmation says Texan 42-86047 was sold at auction in 1983, does anybody know where this aircraft went?

Hi,

Details of 42-86047 are like this :

North American AT-6D-NT Texan
88 -17828
42-86047(USAAF), C.6- 50(SpanAF)

It is possible that this machine was offered for sale at an auction in 1987; that could fit in the timeframe, as most former Spanish Air Force Texans were sold in the eighties. C.6-50 at least survived till 1980, coded 421-38.

Further info very much appreciated.

Regards,
