I?ve been trying to find the NTSB report for the CAF Bearcat that ran out of fuel in 1974. As it turns out it crashed on April 19, 74 and not in May as was reported in the WW directory. Now what is really interesting is in the directory and other reports I?ve seen, was that this was the Bearcat that Steve Hinton now owns with John Maloney and Kevin Eldridge and that has been under rebulid part time at Chino for the past decade. But according to the NTSB report....the Bearcat that ran out of fuel and crashed was actually N7825C, not N7957C. So now I??m wondering was back then the paperwork switched to keep one flying while the other was being repaired, then the false 7825C crashed??? Any info???
