In reply top Ex-CAF P-82?? posted by Jason Pence on Wed Aug 27, 2003 09:53:04 PM
The CAF may have made a big error here and sold an aircraft that was not theirs. If so, legal means may rule in their favor and bring the aircraft back to the USAFM as a static. The veiled threat though seemed to be directed at FIFI, another airplane that the CAF may not own after all. If the P-82 is repossessed, I dont think it will make too big a splash compared to the B-29 getting grounded/repoed! Don't they have enough historic aircraft withering away on static display. To call a static aircraft a "restoration" is like a stuffed bird being called "preserved wildlife".
