This original 1943 Mitsubishi A6M5 Model 52 “Zero” has been sold by Platinum Fighter Sales and will be the subject of a restoration to airworthy condition. According to Platinum, there is a good chance that this Zero will fly with its original Sakae 21 engine. Nearly 11,000 Zeros have dwindled to only two airworthy specimens: The Commemorative Air Force flies one, and the Planes of Fame Museum in Chino, California, flies the other. This would be the third.
