That aircraft is now flying in the USA. It is converted into a TBM3U COD Avenger, with a large stretched canopy, and the complete underside of the fuselage has been recreated,with bomb bay doors and all. So, the last TBM-3W2 in the world was historicly destroyed while being restored to flying condition. A big shame in my opinion, although the current operator has nothing to do with it. It looks as if the first owner in the USA has thrown away all the radar equipment. BW Roger
