A-20 available in Arizona

Casa Grande, Arizona-based restoration specialist GossHawk Unlimited is currently offering two rare aeroplanes for sale on behalf of their owners. The first is a very rare Douglas A-20 Havoc 39-741, from the first batch of 63 Havocs delivered to the USAAC in 1939, and one of just three converted to the F-3 reconnaissance configuration. On October 10, 1942 Capt Richard Stanley Secord and his crew crash-landed the aircraft in Labrador, Canada after running out of fuel during a mapping mission. All three on board survived, but the aircraft was abandoned in the frozen north.

The remains of the aircraft arrived at GossHawk Unlimited on October 10, 2012, exactly 70 years after it crashed. The Havoc is available for just $350,000, and GossHawk is capable of restoring the aircraft to the new owner's specification.

Second aeroplane is North

American NA-50 N202LD - actually a converted Canadian Car & Foundry Harvard IV - that is in well-maintained airworthy condition and comes with a custom avionics suite in the front cockpit. The NA-50 is powered by a Pratt & Whitney R-1340-61 engine turning a three-bladed propeller and is listed at $295,000.

Due to the com pany's increasing workload it is looking to take on an extra sheet metal worker/aircraft mechanic with relevant A&P and/or IA licences. Candidates need the ability and passion to work on warbird/vintage aircraft as well as more modern machinery.
