On 16.8.69, Darryl Greenamyer broke the three kilometre speed record at 483 mph in this highly modified Bearcat "Conquest 1". The previous record had been set in 1939 in a Messerschmitt Me 209. Greenamyer won the National Air Races six times with this aircraft before donating it to the Smithsonian in 1977
