Such a great plane, thanks for Fleshing it out a bit more Jan.

 

Would there be any chance I could talk you into making a "Civilian" paint for it...a white or Non-Navy custom colorful livery with civvy registration?

I'l love to fly this in Airhauler (300kts 'fast cruise' and hauls about 6000 lbs), but it gets weird flying military skins around.

 

Cheers.

Matt.

N6178C 'Bad Kitty', F7F-3P Tigercat c/n 225, built in 1944. Delivered to the marines, it never saw action during WW2. After it was phased out of military service, it found a new career as a firebombing aircraft with Sis Q Air Service and Macavia as tanker E43 until 1986. It then went to the Weeks Air Museum, before a stint in the UK between a988 and 1993. It returned to the US and is currently flying with the Historic |Flight Foundation of Seattle.

the 2-seat F7F-3P Tigercat N207F "King Of The Cats" that was on display at the Palm Springs Air Museum, Palm Springs CA, from 2001 until it was sold in 2010. I believe it is currently in Minnesota.
