@guitarplaya1970 Howard built the original H-1 to break the speed record in 1935, this had short wings, and used the reg number NR258Y which was painted white. When Howard decided he wanted to go out and break the transcontinental record, He lengthened the wingspan, and changed the reg number to NX258Y painted yellow. There are pictures floating around on the internet of the plane with the R hastily painted over and replaced with X.

I could be mistaking but some of the original photos that i've seen around the net have a different tail n-number than this one. the other photos show NX258Y. Is this a rebuild?
