Whatever happened to the Caproni jet?

There are two A21SJ's listed in Texas, and one in Oregon. *There is
also an A21 rebuild that was fitted with a jet in Washington, 1500fpm
climb rate near sea level reported.

There is NOT one in Oregon. *I tried to locate both the ship and the
owner two years ago. *Rumor has it that the owner and ship is MIA in
Australia.

Last summer at the 18m nats there was an A21 tied
down on the ramp at Ephrata Washington. I thought
perhaps a jet model ? Anybody know ?

See ya, Dave "YO electric"


The A21 in Ephrata does have a jet and belongs to Dave Harris of BD5
jet fame. It's been beautifully done and reportedly moves out quite
smartly.
