Photo Comment

This Goose has been on display at the museum since at least 1995. It was often quoted as ex N327 c/n 1051, but that aircraft crashlanded and burned during a training flight at Penn Yan, NY on 15 Feb 2005, and was still under rebuild in Pittsford, NY by Jan 2010. The real NC16913 was c/n 1004, which crashed in Chile on 22 Jan 1962 as CC-CAO-0122. The actual identity of the museum aircraft in this photo is not known.
