Photo Comment

This aircraft is marked as 66304 but the majority of the fuselage by far is from Bu66313 / N3431G, which served as a spares aircraft at Greybull for many years. Rebuilt at Greybull by Hawkins and Powers in 1981-1982, it was flown to the museum in January 1983. Severely damaged by Hurricane Ivan in September 2004 (rudder and engine #4 blown off, damage to fuselage, cockpit canopy, tail and wingtip, and top hatch missing). Had been repaired by 2007.
