Photo Comment

Beginning life as an R4D-7 with the USN in 3.45, this aircraft was acquired by the CAA (later FAA) in 1957 and registered N36 in 1963. Later being used by the DoA and DoT. Derelict by the time of this shot, she was sold to Genavco in 1994 and cancelled from the register in 2000, possibly being blown up for the filming of "Pearl Harbor"
