Re: red barron rb-51

i did find out that the color red that it was painted in 1979 looks close to krylon fusion red pepper just saying because Steve Hinton showed me a peace of the plane once and it matched

"Rebuilt" as Wee Willy II. Only the ID was used.
The majority of the wreckage is stored somewhere while pieces are scattered about in private hands (some skin and engine mounts)

I had a 1'6" piece of a prop tip, and 1 full blade that was bent and twisted for many years. I left it behind when I moved out and my dad did something with it. According to him he says he sold it for scrap metal. But with him, you never know.

well if it were up to me, I would still have them. but I had to go off to school some time, and had no place to keep em. So I had no say in the matter at the time.
