Photo Comment

difficult shot in a yard full of C-46 frames, this one lost a lot of parts already. Still with the ramains of the colors applied by the Japanese. In the mid 70s this airframe was 51-1114. These were the last active duties for this Curtiss. By the late 70s it was owned by Everts, but never became operational.
