The Johnson Rocket was only built for a few years in the mid 40s. Perhaps you're thinking of the more contemporary Harmon Rocket? Totally different plane. John Galban=====N4BQ (PA28-180) Specifically: They built just 17 in 1945/46, but they sold more than 500, plus distributorships, dealerships, company stock, etc. It is a great airplane -- fingertip controls, speed to match Comanches, Bonanzas, etc. and looks to match! Of the 17 built, I am aware of only 7 or 8 that still exist, of which 3 are airworthy. I don't know whether or not those who put down deposits got their money back, but the dealers & distributors and stock buyers certainly did not. |
