ASC T-135/ACA P-50 Being Refurbished in Memphis

[siren fan]

I guess it doesn't affect the sound projection or they just don't care......

[Mysterious T-Bolt 111]

IMO, it looks butt ugly without the additional part of the projector. Also never was really a fan of CD yellow T-135/P-50s as a whole either. Oh well, great to hear a status update!

Eww, way to disperse the sound waves as quickly as possible. Not a bad paint job though.

Good lord!!!!! That thing is almost as big as the victory bell… Lol That thing has more HP than the aircraft I am working for...

[holler]

Probably still loud as hell

The ACA Hornetrator 50! Interesting crossbars in the horn, reminds me of a MD chopper.

Disappointing the chose not to replace the outer projector horn, but I guess it's good they didn't replace it altogether.
IMO, they should've taken one of the P-50s in less-populated south Memphis and swapped them out.

Anyone in Memphis able to get a video?

Looks like a Whelan Hornet involved in a steroid scandal.

Anyone in Memphis able to get a video?

I can try...may be a couple of months though.

Wow the innards of a P50 are huge. Just from the picture showing the rotor & stator I not see the P50s rotor & stator design to well unless there were multiple photos at different angles & there was photos showing the rotor & stator separated on a table side by side. It looks great after being refurbished.
