Walter Fricke owns a T-28 at Crystal.
There is a guy at Anoka that has his own T-28 and conducts training.

No real organization. There is the American Wings Air Museum at Anoka, that has a number of owner displayed aircraft.

Any news on the new airplane?

Hey, hello again.
It is a T-28, due up here in a couple months. Undergoing inspection down in Texas, I think. We are going to go somewhere for a couple days of instruction in it...the new owner is low time, so needs me for insurance for awhile. Nice....I guess we may be flying it to Oshkosh this summer, hear it is a real racer, very slick.

Which model T-28 is it? There is a very knowledgeable T-28 guy in Dallas whose name escapes me at this point. He is also an examiner so can do the type rating if its not an "A" model (which requires no type).

Keep us posted on your progress.
