    WOW! A proper carrier! I suggest they put it at the Museum though, being a casino or something is like dressing a war vet like a clown :rolleyes:

    Jeez, the only carriers I ever seen for sale were prostitutes.

    Hey, they also have a Yak-3 up for grabs at ebay - $55,000 only - cheap for a warbird, but is not original type of engine - it is 1200HP Allison (a bit weaker & probably more heavy then the orriginal, also i think Allison inlines were no good for putting cannons down the centerline
