Photo Comment

A good case can be argued that the Cutlass was the worst arcraft ever operated by the USN, mainly as it was woefully underpowered. Nonetheless it is great that this airframe, relegated to ground instructional duties in 1957, is being restored at the Museum of Flight Restoration center.
