Bit of a long shot here. At Oshkosh last year, I filmed a s/seat A4 Skyhawk that was in the jet line up at the show. Normally, aircraft from the museum are not part of the line up, and therefore, I believed it to be airworthy,although it's number was the same as the listed museum aircraft. After a few days, it disappeared from the line up, and I thought it had flown away. Subsequently, I believe I saw an article in , I believe, Aircraft Illustrated, that an A.4 had been restored, and made it's first flight at Oshkosh, possible about November, last year?. In order to solve a friendly dispute, can anyone confirm or deny this please, many thanks in advance. John. PS. I am NOT referring to the 2 seat A4 in the current magazine.
