    Gillespie Airport A-26 ?

    While visiting the restoration facility for the San Diego Air and Space Museum at Gillespie Airport, I noticed that the A-26 that was there last time I visited about 3 years ago was gone. As I remember it had a blue tail, and maybe some blue on the cowlings. Anyone know what happened to it? Thanks and Merry Christmas

    Apparently sold to someone in Santa Rosa, CA known as "Black Crow Aviation, LLC" and flown there in the summer of 2011.
