Trucked to Tahoe in 1980 for restoration; parts were sourced from 45-49192/N47DD and a wing from South America. the final result was given the ID of 45-49192/N47DD. The frame exchanged owners while still being restored (70% completed by 1984). First flight was in August 1985 as N(X)47DD. Shipped to Duxford in early 1986. Became G-THUN in June 1999.
