Default RE: t-2 buckeye

Hi guys
I had a D and B T2J some years ago. As a matter of fact I still have the wing with flaps and airlerons
still up in the attic. My memories of the flight characteristics was that it was an excellent flyer and I did not notice any bad tendencies. I lost the airplane due to stupidity namely stalling on takeoff. The landings were not fast at all and were predictable. If anyone wants I will be glad to see if I can find a box big enough for the one piece wing and send it out if you pay the shipping. No other money involved.
If I remember correctly I had goodsized cheaterholes in the fuse.
It should fly great on a 12 lb turbine which would put it on step a lot quicker than a fan
Anyway let me know
Ed
