Hi Joe,

Nice little turbo prob that was ...

Seems as though its a "Super Tucano" model ....N314TG is on the FAA records, 
but the Bu number you gave is allocated to a MH-53 Chopper, so guessing it 
was prob a hoax/false bu number ...it was using its civil tail number up to 
March according to Flightaware .....very interesting ...

1052:  FURY 18 (A-29, ????) lands Nashville (KBNA) 118.4>118.6
       (departs @ 1220 westbound as FURY 01)

Military designation is A-29 but in civil speak it's an Embraer EMB-314B.
It had a taped on BuNo (over an old registration) of 163056.  Ex civil 
registration was N314TG.  According to the pilots they were enroute from 
Oceana to Fallon, NV.  It was mentioned that this a/c is used for research 
and development.  This aircraft is similar to a T-6A Texan II.
