    I'm curious,the article also stated that the CAF had to return a P-82 to the USAF but didn't state why....so why? If they had it since 1966 I would have thought ownership would have been worked out,or was in on loan from the USAF?
    Of course I know what I'm doing,gee whiz......ouch,owwwww

    That would be really cool! I hope I am still living close to OSH when they finally make it here.
