Question: T-33 stored at Esbjerg (DK)

Post by Buccaneer S.2B »

Good evening,

Last week at a short visit to Esbjerg (Denmark) a T-bird in silver USAF colours was seen,
stored outside. As the rear fusealge part including tail was missing,
I wondered if anybody can provide me the serial of this one.

t.i.a.,
regards,
Remco

the only USAF T-33 I could find in the EMOOS that is wondering through Denmark would be the 53-6091 that was for sale ex Billund so that might be your bird?

Hi Ruud,

Thx for your quick response ! I found this one as well in my old EMOOS copy,
but it's still a possible candidate and not the definite one.......
Maybe somebody knows for sure ?

Remco,

This is the answer I got on my mail this morning. I have no time yet to check it out, but here it is.


-----------------------------------
Good morning

I have now checked the T-33. The tail part is in the hangar. The numbers on the tail part are 80697 and N49239. On the internet we have found the contruction no. 580-1746. I hope this information helps you.
