Thought there were only Tabor21-24?

They landed KLFI, because of bad wx in the MD area....

They all made testflight with a fueltank, something only seen (even at DM) prior deployment departure. Only these birds were flying with these fueltanks.

I'm pretty sure it's a typo and has to be 81-0991/DM!
