T J, when did David Arnold dispose of it? Presumably it was some time after “Shangri-La” went to Mexico, so was it around the time that “Petie 2nd” was up for grabs with Courtesy? I wasn’t aware it had even re-surfaced out of its container yet alone managed to log so many hours in the air. He really can’t have much left from the old days now. Wonder what’s next up for grabs, P40N maybe? Better fix those dents in the wing first;)

As I remember it the TF went back to the US in 1996. The a/c was certified by the FAA in 09-96 to its new owner. “Shangri La” probarbly went stateside around the same time. I’m not sure what David Arnold has got anymore. Haven’t heard anything about the P-40N being sold, nor have I heard that MK. IX NH238 has left.
