Haha, sorry I couldn't help it. Was shopping aircraft and ran across one in NY.
I know it's too big and probably 4.5x more than you want to spend, but man it would be cool! Complete minus engines Think of all the kids that could play in that

Just 260 miles south of you. Bet he would take 4k or less and maybe trade? I keep finding complete 150 cessna's needing repaired around 4k so somebody has to have a shell cheap.

****Add-  Hey Ed, do you know anyone over around Swanton Vt? I was using "Google maps" around the area, and at the Franklin County State Airport there is an old fuselage sitting behind some old hangers.

sammons...that aircraft is a little too big for my project..but I appreciate you pointing it out.  Swanton, VT is about 17 miles from my house..I know - I drove every day for about 10 years when I was in the Border Patrol!


I get over there occasionally if you want me to look around.

Haha, nah! I knew the big one was too much. The little one over at Swanton looked like maybe you could make a play house out of. They don't way squat and you can easily drag up on a car trailer. I just like spotting them

About 30yrs ago a guy stopped at the shop to look at a car out front. A trailer went by on the hiway with an old fighter fuselage on. I told the guy i would sure like to find an old bomber cockpit. He said he knew of one, seen it a couple months earlier. Claimed it to be a B-17 nose with the chin turret still attached and out in the boonies by an old farm house next to a tree row. So the next sunday my buddy Tom and I made the 70 mile trek in search of. It was a Boeing...707 frt cockpit propped up with a 55 gallon drum with a metal fence post leaning up against it     Got a good laugh, it was a nice day for a drive.
