The second Grumman Goose, owned by Henry Morgan, one of ten affluent Long Island businessmen who requested the design of the G-21. Morgan's wife and friends made a trip all the way to Texas in the aircraft. Like other early Geese it was acquired by the Canadian air force in 1940. It crashed at Nassau in the Bahamas in 1947 as VP-BAE. Photo from: San Antonio Light / University of Texas at San Antonio
