CAF B-23 now pending sale (?)

Tue Dec 16, 2008 10:45 am

I see that the much discussed CAF B-23 is now listed as "pending" on Courtesy's website...can anyone provide any insight into where it is going?

It has been a favorite aircraft of mine since seeing it fly many moons ago.

Sounds like it will be a Merry Christmas for a museum in upstate NY?? At least I hope so.

That is Great News ! I hope that maybe their might be a Snowballs chance in Texas that she someday may be restored to fly ...............I know that the chance of that happening are slim........but then again we are under a WINTER advisery here in Central Texas :wink:

That is great news!! As one who have had the honor of crewing and flying B-23 39-33 N747M, they are a real neat aircraft. Good luck to you all.
