Courtesy is offering an FG-1D project for sale, $925,000 incl shipping. She's 90% complete incl engine & prop. This is Bu No. 88090, an ex RNZAF bird that's been in storage in Ardmore, NZ, since '74.

Sigh. I didn't have any luck getting 300,00 some odd friends to donate a dollar to me so I could by the SB2C that was for sale. I guess this ones out of my reach to.

Maybe I can start buying TBM bits & pieces now for a restoration in the future :roll:.

I guess you can tell a have a major WWII Navair fixation.

Edit - no worries I found the link in the end

If this aircraft leaves NZ it'd be a very sad day.
