Taxiing out to display on a grey day at Mid Atlantic Air Museum's 34th Annual WW II Weekend Airshow. Constructed in 1942, this Valiant was taken on charge by the USAAF with s/n 42-1779. Restored in USN colors, the aircraft with its unflattering moniker "Vultee Vibrator" served as the SNV for formation flying and as an instrument trainer.
