There is an ad for a flying CT4 in full RNZAF colours in the latest issue of Classic Wings with an asking price of $130,000.

Thats for an ex-RAAF CT/4A

The ex-RNZAF CT/4Es are held in storage, and the reputed asking price is more than double that.

Unsurprisingly, no sales so far.

Thanks J Boyle. £70k is a bit too much but it was a nice thought.

Still sitting (well, occasional trundle about) at Napier?

A historic type missed in the report was the Devon, which did a brief display with the Harvards before the solo Harvard.

Have the T-6s replaced the CT-4s? If so have the CT-4s come on to the civilian market yet? Just asking as it might be nice to replace my Air tourer.
