Here is some of the scoop! The "official" restored YO-55 belongs to the Confederate Air Force and is in the custody of the Big Thicket Wing in Conroe, Texas. I e-mailed them many months ago, indicating that I was doing some research and writing on Ercoupes, and asked if I might have a color snapshot of the airplane. I've not received an answer yet...so I emailed them again this morning after reading Tom's question. Perhaps if others wanted to ask in my behalf...I'll even pay for a picture...we might get some results. Here are the facts: Big Thicket Wing, CAF POB 2703 Conroe TX 77305 Wing Leader: Col. John Joseph Wing Ops Officer: Col. Jin Higgins, (409) 321-1520 Email Contact: Col. Ron Cecil, [EMAIL PROTECTED] -------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- E. T.
