Re: Race 57 sold? CONFIRMED

Since mr. Pratt dosn't seem to have a shortage of money maybe he could get a sheet metal wiz to make a more correct cowling/scoop for race 57. They could copy race 74's.

Re: Race 57 sold? CONFIRMED

I have another idea how the new owner can spend his money on his airplane that is none of my business. The outer wing panels on #57 are F4U-4 units. The origonal wings are with a -4 project GERRY BECK sold a few years ago. Would be nice to see the wings re-united. And make a historic airplane that much more complete.

A good friend of mine is a corporate pilot and knows Ron Pratt's pilot and will set up a tour of his collection. Anyone interested let me know (PM or email).

Here's a shot of Race 57 I took at dawn last September. Not too bad considering I took it with my iPhone.

Bob O's acro show at Reno a few years back in #57 was one of the best I've ver seen. The power and energy package that plane possesses are nothing short of amazing!

Re: Race 57 sold? CONFIRMED

I think its time for another Super Corsair race plane, highly modified,to beat the Furys that will be up & running.
