The Air Zoo Tigercat is now listed as Pending on Courtesy Aircraft. Anyone heard who might be interested in it?

DAMN- I was supposed to have my Nigerian lottery winnings by now so I could buy her.

Likely to buy: No.

Darn. The lottery numbers didn't kick in last weekend either... :roll:

I was told by a reliable source today that the Tigercat has been sold to a collector in the San Antonio, TX area. He didn't think it was Rod Lewis, but did say he knows that the new owner plans to fly the aircraft and bring it to several airshows a year. I just hope I get a chance to see this baby in the air again, wherever she goes!

Glacier Girl, Rare Bear, and now a Tigercat- Looks like I moved away from Texas at exactly the wrong time.

Hope she does make the circuit - it will be great to see one in the air.

Wouldn't it be great to see Howards F4F, LSFM F6F, this F7F, and one of Rod's F8F's in formation. Now if only LSFM could be persuaded to pull the F3F out of the hanger.

I was there last week, and I have to say that those who say that the sale of these two aircraft wouldn't affect how the museum looks, are wrong. It just isn't the same with the F7F and F8F not in the museum. When I was there, they were over in t he restoration shop.

In the San Antonio area and not Rod Lewis. If I didn't win the Mega Millions last night that only leaves two other options. Interesting!!!!!!!!!!!
