This aircaft is operated by Air Atlantique on behalf of Thales for radar development. A jet APU can be seen fitted to the fuselage and this is used solely to power the radar equipment. An unusual vertical stabiliser is also fitted behind the tail wheel. Strange that this old aircraft, made in 1944, is used for developing advanced radar 60 years later.

This beauty arrived at Fantasy of Flight on May 1, 2012 after a nine month stay at the EAA Museum in Oshkosh, WI, where it arrived from England in July 2011. She's being towed back to the hangar after an engine run followed by a thorough washing. Fantasy of Flight was recently closed and is currently only open for group events.
