Hi All,
I was going over some of my old notes and was wondering what ever happen to the following aircraft.
1 The Shark tail B-17 that was shot down over Scand. I have a listing stating that about 70% of the aircraft still exist but because of its location its hard to get to.
2 The five straight wing F-84 that were located on the South range of China Lake. I have in my notes saying that they were sited by a 14 driver in mid-90's also at China Lake Air Classic did a short story about the number of F6F's drowns that are laying about.
3 In Greece there were a number of 84 and 86D models that were reported at the Greek Air Force storage yard in the mid-80's anyone know what happen to these.
4 In Israel at the big open air yard where two KC-97L one was a Maine Ang. bird and the other was an active bird are they still their.
Thanks for any info.
Cheers Rob
