Checked Barnstormers and they list it at $300,000 U.S. and describe it as polished and recently flown.

O.K., you buy it and I'll gladly go with you to pick it up! :lol: :lol: :drink3:

Actually 300k isn't a bad starting point, depends on what "recently" means!

Definately a different aircraft.

Almost cost equal to bring the one back from OZ and restore to airshow quality.
Still...probably the best value for what you get.
6-7 seats, cruise at 210 kts, go for 5 hours.

Got mixed up a bit. Platinum does list the former water bomber, and it is yellow. Platinum has the serial as 45-35898, A-26 survivors on wiki has it as 44-35898 and owned by McFarlane. The Barnstormers A-26 is 44-34508 and owned by Jack Bazler. If I had only won the Powerball.
