Description

This is one of only 11(AD-4's) on the U.S. registry. Not only is this one of the more rare warbirds, but it is an attention getter. It is a big hit on the airshow circuit. Although it is a physically imposing aircraft, with the wings folded, it is only 24 feet wide. At the weights the aircraft is now flown, initial climb can be in excess of 3,000 fpm. $985,000.00 INCLUDES SPARES PACKAGE
