<p>c/n 88-12304
Built for the US Navy with the Bureau No 27268. Later flew with the Ejercito del Aire (Spanish Air Force) as C.6-180.
Part of the Salis collection and was at one time rebuilt as a replica single-seat NA-64 in Aeronavale colours, later painted as a US Navy Hellcat. Now rebuilt in standard two-seat format and painted in a representative postwar USAF colour scheme.
It has been confirmed that during rebuilds her identity was swapped with that of F-AZZM, the Salis ‘Zero’ replica, which is why the DGAC have 88-12127 as her c/n and why she has 12127 as her tail number.
Seen taxiing in after displaying at the 2019 Fête Aérienne Le Temps Des helices (Aerial Festival – The Time of the Propellers).
