bdk and Paul are correct. It's sitting in the EAA museum in Oshkosh. I sat in on a forum at OSH by the builder the year they rolled it out. I don't remember exactly what year that was. It's a very interesting story of what Rosnick went through in pursuit of his dream of owning a P-6 Hawk. The end result is absolutely gorgeous. I'm pretty sure he wrote a book about it.
