Photo Comment

Was built in May 1944 for USAAF as 42-72202, but delivered to the USN as BuNo 39163. Later to NC49527, ZS-BWN, F-BJHG & TU-TBJ. Seen here on the active runway after a nose landing gear failure during landing. Unfortunately was written off due to serious frame damage when the aircraft was pushed out of the runway.
