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? :jump:

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

Here is the CAF ship I photographed back in Oct 2005. The last time I saw her.
