This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

MAPS Air Museum's Stinson Relient has arrived. It flew in last week. It is very nicely painted in its original British paint scheme. It was actually used by the RAF in 1943. Take a look:

Two V-77 projects were put up for sale very recently in the Invergrove Heights area, MN.
I went chasing V-77s in 2000, and happened to talk to the owner of these over the phone, as well as exchanging e-mails with the owner of the other V-77 that was rotting away at Fleming Field.
The Gullwing shape of the V-77 makes it, in my opinion, look really elegant, even when sitting on the ground.
