The last time I was in there, a few months ago, it was waiting on props. The engines were hung.

Is it going to fly?

Thanks!

That last I heard it was going to be a flyer. I think that it is going to be painted as an A-20 named "The Joker". Now I don't know if it will ever fly at Air heritage or not.

It is supposed to move to another location to be worked on at some point.

I would think that it is getting to that point. I just don't see the guys getting her to fly there.

Looks like they're making good progress..maybe I'll get to see an A-20 in the air before I die after all.

Are they allowign public viewing or did you have an inside connection that let you get in to see it.

I am in that area occasionally and would love a chance to get in to see her.

it is open to the public, it seems that progress is slow but steady. Looking it over last yer it seemed to me that they where doing a good job on it. I really would love to see an A-20 fly at an airshow.

I remember a year or so ago there was talk of it being moved maybe with David's A-26 and B-25 (to where, when or if ever they are moved) but that rumor seemed to die very fast. Anyone know anything they can talk about?

Steve, the public is welcome but you should probably call first to make sure someone is around. 724-843-2820

Here's a link to some more pictures I posted.

David's A-26 and B-25

There was talk about Geneseo getting a A-26 and B-25. I wonder if they would be these?
