What about the one piled up in pieces in a storage yard at Chino? All that time and trouble to haul it out of the swamp and bring it 'home', now what......???

I corresponded with Fred Hagen a few weeks ago and he stated that a museum was trying to raise the funds for the restoration and transfer of ownership. He is supposed to let me know if the agreement with the museum works out or not. :drinkers:

Thanks for posting this Scott. I was interested in what the failure was on Panchito. I may never get to certify a B-25, but you never know... :)

Great update as ever Scott.

I've created a simple introduction post on the Aces, Contrails, and Unsung Heroes forum 2009 excavation thread you linked to, which leads out to the 2010 and 2011 dig threads.

All the best,
PB

(PS, I really must get in touch with you to get my AV forum account working again sometime... :))
