I have been in and out of Hughes Airport in Culver City many times when 
  flying for Sinatra and there was an A-20 Havoc parked on the ramp for 
over 20 years. John Seymour who was a high placed executive with Hughes 
empire told me that it had a pre-flight every day along with  copy of 
the LA Times and Wall Street Journal placed on board in case that Howard 
decided to fly it. John said that Howard flew it one time that he new of 
it and that he had said he liked it and the way that it flew and to keep 
it ready which it was until the day he died. Where it is unknown to me 
at this point in time may be planes of fame at Chino.
