    No. I just felt the other 2 more influential to Republic after the end of WW2.

    The Rainbow was an amazing achievement. The P 47 Thunderbolt a legend.

    So I went over again to the local Aircraft museum and asked them what was going on with the Skynight sitting behind their building. It has been sitting since 2021 on it's side. 2 months later and this is what I found. I think sometimes a little interest and a nudge can do amazing things.

    Very sleek King Cobra.


    From Facebook cancelled aircraft post:


    "The Crazy Horse, registered as N9009, was a highly modified Bell P-63C Kingcobra air racer piloted by Larry H. Havens. It competed in the 1971 Reno Air Races, achieving notable speeds in the Unlimited class. Tragically, it crashed during a test flight over the Pacific Ocean on September 7, 1972, after engine failure, though the pilot safely bailed out."

    Logistically it must have been a nightmare, but if you destroy all your old planes then you get new ones. A new military complex was born. I see a lot of P61's and C47's in the soon to be crushed aircraft site, both still operational. New Guinea 1945.
