"Bataan" is owned by Lewis Air Legends in Oshkosh WI where it will make its home after restoration is completed by Fighter Rebuilders in Chino CA.

FYI There is a second Connie under restoration in Virginia, owned by Dynamic Aviation.    It is due to fly in late 2024 or early 2025. 

Both Connie's are slated to be on the airshow circuit.
