Beautiful Patricio !!
R-3350 TURBO COMPOUND WITH POWER RECOVERY TURBINES IN EXHAUST. ABLE TO CRUISE ON J-34'S ALONE BUT LOST AC AND DC GENERATORS, IN RECIPT'S.
Oh No CBuck! With a 6800 Lb boot in the back, she can top 400mph and peg a real 350Kts IAS in level flight. Then turn around lean out those big round motors to stretch out her legs over 3200 NM with no external fuel stores and no inflight refuel.
Yes this beautiful ole Gal is part of the collection of ex RAAF ex Civilian rego aircraft at HARS Museum in Albion Park Illawarra.HARS = Historic Aircraft Restoration Society.
