Guys

There was a 'clean' FB10? fuselage stored outside the MAPS Museum , Akron Ohio 7/99. Anyone know the identity or where it is now?

Dave

p.s. One two seater taken to the UK and now 'gone to ground' at an RAF base, another two seater destroyed by bombs, at least 5 aircraft on a range ( two photographed), one still displayed at the racecourse outdoor museum, now confirmed to have survived the war so far, one Moroccan aircraft on display at an AFB ( photographed). All these examples can be seen in the current Classic Wings which features Furies from that area.

Sanders Aviation. As for ID, the fuse, wings and center section were all from different airplanes. I might still have the info at home.

How recent is that shot of the Amjet Fury? I don't recall ever seeing it when the museum was open, and I certainly haven't seen it from the ramp the few times I've happened by when the doors were open in recent years.


It is from around 1993, I think. I can't remember where it went after being sold...
