More news.......66 model, good chance you can look into the historical records and see combat service in Vietnam. All those aircraft have "Military Historicals" I think the VHPA (
www.vhpa.org) also may have info IF it served in combat. The 74 models were some of the last off the line and should be in very good shape , albeit what the sand dunes did to them.....
I would certainly like to put one through the paces again, they are a fun machine. Load them up till the RPM bleeds and then its a running takeoff. When it quits making sparks, your airborne......................BUT still not as fun as the Cobra........
