Photo Comment

Ex. 44-70546 with the USAAF. This is the original body of the LN-PAB. While operating on a Cold War secret mission for the Norwegian military intelligence, it crashed in lake Gavdnajavri after hitting an object in the water, after which the aircraft flipped over. The wreck remained at the bottom of the lake for 50 years, until it was found in 2002. It is being restored by the Norwegian aviation museum and the historical aviation society of Bodø.
