Warbird Information Exchange

Does anyone know where Bill Demsey's O-47b is going or who bought it?

It has been sold. The new owner has a very unique collection of liason types, a couple of very rare fighters and a bomber...

I know, I know!

Well, actually I don't know. But from your very good clue, I am going to guess it will have a P-82 and an L-1 for hangar mates?

Just checked FAA registry an it's still listed under D&D Aero Inc., William A Dempsay, N-73716. Combat Air Museum's website has it sold. Just a matter of time for the paperwork to equal the weight of the aircraft to see who the new owner is.

Whoever buys that O-bird, I'd just like to hear the new owner wants to fly it!

Mechanic: "Flap switch checked OK. Pilot needs more P.T." - Flight report, TB-17G 42-102875 (Hobbs AAF)

It is going to Very good home where it will be well taken care of and I expect it will fly !

I'll assume this means it's now safe to spill the beans:
