Is that the Bird that belongs to the EAA museum that was in a crate at Pearl harbor when the attack of Dec 7, 1941, was happening?

I don't remember any mention of EAA. There were only a handful of these.

Only two listed on Wiki and the one the EAA has was acquired in the 60's and had been at Pearl during the attack. It stopped flying from 85 till they fired her up again in 2013. She is the only listed flying model listed and the N64NA registration is not listed on the wiki page. I suspect it is one of less than four or five still capable of flight, so it is an amazing sight to see, and your images are great!

Wow if that is not a replica - it's a VERY rare bird!

EAA has one that was the Founder, Paul Poberezny got up and flying in the 60s, and it was crated on the dock at Pearl harbor on 7 Dec, 1941 so it is actually a vet. It was Paul P's favorite bird to fly around in, (and he was a World Champion Aerobatic Pilot.) Current pilot of the EAA bird said it is like a T-6 on steroids! You can see the North American Aviation lineage in it from every angle. Love em all!
