: Hi Mike.
:
: No 1.
: I don't think the TFC example claims to be 45-49192 any lo
: nger.
: As I recall, "No Guts, No Glory" used one wing from the re
: al 49192 ,and one from "South America".
:
: No 2.
: The remains of 49192 when given to the IWM, comprised of t
: he more or less intact cockpit section with the rear fusel
: age totally smashed.
: I think it used it's remaining, more badly damged wing in
: the restoration, along with a very good one from the Nethe
: rlands that was complete with undercarriage.
: Along with many other bits and pieces, some new build, it
: made a very fine restoration of the Genuine 45-49192.
: It also has the original type Rayon tyres from Butch Schro
: eder's Thunderbolt.
